lyrics

HOW CAN I - SKINNY ALLEY / ESCAPE THE ROAR / 2003 / Virgin Records

Turbulence hits the aircraft and my baby's crying
She's just discovered a sudden fear of dying
And she clings on to me, how she clings on to me
I tell her it's okay to be scared, everybody is
It's how you deal with your fear that matters
Cause death is everywhere
On the ground and in the air

How can I tell her what she wants to know
How can I tell her why we came and how we'll go
Does anybody know?

Silence in the cabin as we plummet through the skies
Everyone shares the terror in my daughter's eyes
And I pull her to my breast, I'm just as scared as all the rest

How can I...

And then the voice from the cockpit saying
Sorry about that but it's over now
And we fly through the night
While my baby sleeps by my side

How can I...
