  • We're walking in the air
    We're floating in the moonlit sky
    The people far below are sleeping as we fly

    I'm holding very tight (I'm holding very tight)
    I'm riding in the midnight blue (I'm riding in the midnight blue)
    I'm finding I can fly so high above with you
    (Riding in the midnight blue)

    On across the world (on across the world)
    The villages go by like dreams (the villages go by like dreams)
    The rivers and the hills, the forests and the streams

    Children gaze open mouthed
    Taken by surprise
    Nobody down below believes their eyes

    We're surfing in the air (we're surfing in the air)
    We're swimming in the frozen sky (we're swimming in the frozen sky)
    We're drifting over icy mountains floating by

    Suddenly swooping low
    On an ocean deep
    Rousing up a mighty monster from his sleep

    And walking in the air
    We're dancing in the midnight sky
    And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly

    We're walking in the air
    We're walking in the air Writer/s: Howard David Blake
