There's trouble in the friendly skies tonight
Love can never last when you're flyin' up this high
You took the lead, but I'm not ready to come down
So long baby, I'll see you someday when we're both on the ground

And yeah, you're gone like the wind, and it don't even matter
I fly above it all and watch the world shatter
We had a skydive love affair
Doomed from the very start
So you can throw my love to the wind
I'll just float back to the ground
With my parachute heart

There's trouble in my lonely old balloon
I let you jump, but maybe you jumped too soon
It's too late for me to turn back now
So, goodbye baby
I'm not ready to follow you down

And yeah, you're gone like the wind and it don't even matter
I fly above it all and watch the world shatter
We had a skydive love affair
Doomed from the very start
So you can throw my love to the wind
I'll just float back to the ground
With my parachute heart

Yeah, you're gone like the wind and it don't even matter
I fly above it all and watch the world shatter
We had a skydive love affair
Doomed from the very start
You can throw my love to the wind
I'll just float back to the ground
With my parachute heart
Parachute heart
