F Bb Gm C
Love is a glass of wine
D# Bb
It's Balanced on the siderail of a ship

Across the sea at midnight calm, it may not last the daylight
Gm F
calm And the trip is long

And the waves are strong
F Gm
But then again, it might be up there forever

I've heard of birds that never touch the land

But sleep on the winds

And if untouched by someone's careless hand

Asleep on the winds

Our love might last until the journey ends

Alive Alive

They're rainbow-colored they're

They're shining in the sun
Am Dm Gm
They drift above the treetops now

In danger if the breeze drops somehow
F
And darling, that's all it would take
Bb
yet we threaten not to break
F F Gm
And you know we could be up here forever

And if untouched by someone's careless hand
