Verse 1

Two men climbed where the cold wind stayed

In a rusted lift above the roofs

Twenty-five floors and a borrowed day

With nothing left to prove

They held each other against the height

While Ivanovo waited far below

The clouds turned gray, the warning light

Kept blinking soft and slow

Pre-Chorus

You said, “Don’t look down, my friend”

I said, “There’s nowhere else to go”

Chorus

Then we laughed through the ache, like fools in the rain

Blue bubbles burst on our faces again

We flew from the lift with our hearts undone

Toward the little old village beneath the sun
