Help me escape the cares of life,
Be the wind beneath my wings;
Dream along with me, what partners we'll be,
Together we'll do wondrous things

We'll be daring, but not foolish,
We won't fly close to the sun,
From Icarus I learned we could get burned,
For some things just should not be done

But you and I are not mindless,
We'll be daring, but careful,
I'll take your hand, but you must understand
When you lead, I'm always prayerful

You say you'll take me to heaven .....
Sky diving?? ..... how exciting ......
Sounds a bit manic, may cause some panic,
Even a little nail biting!!

What? How about deep-sea diving?
We'll go to the ocean floor?!
Just a suggestion ....  I have one question:
Have you ever done this before?

Now you're starting to frighten me,
Maybe we should think this through;
I'm not a coward, but I'm being devoured
By doubt, so here's what we could do:

We'll climb that hill and count the stars
That fall from the sky above;
Or, since it's so late, let's end this debate .....
Why don't we stay home and make love!!
