What a vision did it draw into my eyes
The dream where I stood tall with someone like you aside
So I wanted to live in the clouds
or the cartoons or the clouds in the cartoons
But it goes like this every time we wake up in the afternoon

I was scared to be holdin' on
(my love it's only a wave of light)
To be holdin' onto you
(my love it's only a wave of light)
And when we've done our crime
Oh you know we gotta do our time
Holdin' on
(my love it's only a wave of light)

What a vision did it draw into my eyes
The dream where I stood tall with someone like you aside
So I wanted to fly in a ferris wheel to the hills of frisco
But it goes like this every time we wake up in the afternoon

I was scared to be holdin' on
(my love it's only a wave of light)
To be holdin' onto you
(my love it's only a wave of light)
And when we've done our crime
Oh you know we gotta do our time
Holdin' on
(my love it's only a wave of light)

My love it's only a wave of light
My love it's only a wave of light
Oh you know we gotta do our time
My love it's only a wave of light
