In The Air Tonight
A.R.S.E.! Lyrics

You wanted a challenge that's calling you higher
You seek a challenge that will push you to greater heights

I landed on my feet by crawling
I fell down, but picked myself up and persevered

I remember standing alone trying to forget you idling
I recall being alone and attempting to erase memories of you remaining idle

I hate to admit that that's my reference point
I dislike confessing that this is my frame of reference

But there it is you say you want me
Despite that, you claim to desire me

I'm what you found, I'm upside down
You discovered me, and I am now turned upside down

You're in the air, you're in the air and I am breathing
You're soaring high, and I am trying to catch my breath

Brighten the stars
Make the stars shine brighter

The weather is lifting the heavens love a love like this
The climate is elevating the affection shared by those who love like us

It's pulling you higher twist it and turn this around
It's drawing you up, so let's switch it up a bit

It lights from within it dribbles your chin
Light emanates from within and trickles down your face

Now brings a smile, I'm lost again
This moment elicits a smile, and I am once more adrift

I want the stars to know they've won if only to beguile
I want the stars to recognize their victory, if only to enchant

The sky has opened up again in heavens reconciled
The sky has opened up once more, with Heaven in harmony

I want you naked, I want you wild, I want the stars to know they win
I want you to be yourself, uninhibited, and I want the stars to acknowledge their triumph

Give me that smile, just give it me, just turn it on, I'm lost again
Please smile for me, switch it on, and I'm once more swept away

You're everywhere, you're in the air and I am breathing you
You're all around, you're soaring, and I am inhaling you
