Song lyrics:

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

Far across the world The villages go by like dreams The rivers and the hills The forests and the streams

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

We're surffing in the air We're swimming in the frozen sky We're drifting over icy Mountain floating by

Suddenly swooping low on an ocean deep Arousing of a mighty monster from its sleep

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