Walking in the Air

"Walking in the Air" 

from "The Snowman"

This recording was made in 2001 by Declan Galbraith at age 9.

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 riding in the midnight blue
I'm finding I can fly so high above with you

On across the world
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 are swimming in the frozen sky
We are drifting over icy mountains floating by

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

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