Lyrics
[Verse 1] We buckle in at seven, wind already on the wing You grin across the cabin like you know what comes next A little map of rivers folded in your hand And all that open country waiting underneath [Pre-Chorus] The door slides back, the whole sky pours inside You look at me and say, “ready when you are” [Chorus] We’re falling through the blue, laughing into flight The hills unfold like ribbons in the morning light Then the canopy blooms and the world turns slow Every river, every field, laid out below You and me, and a handful of brave hearts flying free We came for the rush, but we found the whole wide world beneath our feet [Verse 2] Mara waves from the doorway, luis counts us out loud Then the plane is just a speck in that enormous cloud The wind pulls every thought clean out of my head And the valley draws a silver line ahead [Pre-Chorus] You point toward the coastline, bright and far away I swear i’ve never seen the earth look this alive [Chorus] We’re falling through the blue, laughing into flight The hills unfold like ribbons in the morning light Then the canopy blooms and the world turns slow Every river, every field, laid out below You and me, and a handful of brave hearts flying free We came for the rush, but we found the whole wide world beneath our feet [Bridge] The straps go taut, our speed gives way to air Your voice comes through, “look around—we’re there” A patchwork of green, a road like a thread And the bright clean hush where the wild fear fled [Final chorus] We’re floating through the blue, laughing into flight The hills unfold like ribbons in the morning light Now the canopy carries us easy and slow Every river, every field, laid out below You and me, and our new friends, grinning ear to ear We came for the rush—and we’ll be talking about this all year [Outro] Touch down, brush the grass from our knees Already asking when we’ll go again
