[Verse] Sweetest little morning, everybody sing He holds you like a spider on a very thin string Right above the burning, swinging in the light Isn't it a lovely, lovely, lovely sight [Pre-Chorus] There is nothing underneath you Not a floorboard, not a stone Just a little bit of air, love And the air won't hold you long [Chorus] Nothing but air (nothing but air) Nothing but air beneath your feet Nothing but air (nothing but air) And it's such a lovely day this week Smile for the water, smile for the flame Smile 'cause the ground has changed its name Nothing but air (nothing but air) Oh, isn't it sweet, isn't it sweet [Verse] The bow is bent already, arrow to the string And nobody has promised you a single thing Water's getting higher than the wall can stand Clap along, my darling, clap and hold my hand [Pre-Chorus] There is nothing underneath you Not a promise, not a rope Just a little bit of air, love And a very little hope [Chorus] Nothing but air (nothing but air) Nothing but air beneath your feet Nothing but air (nothing but air) And it's such a lovely day this week Smile for the water, smile for the flame Smile 'cause the ground has changed its name Nothing but air (nothing but air) Oh, isn't it sweet, isn't it sweet [Bridge] Your own weight is heavy Heavier than lead Pretty little something Dangling by a thread Nobody is holding Nobody has said Pretty little something Dangling by a thread [Chorus] Nothing but air (nothing but air) Nothing but air beneath your feet Nothing but air (nothing but air) And it's such a lovely day this week Smile for the water, smile for the flame Smile 'cause the ground has changed its name Nothing but air (nothing but air) Oh, isn't it sweet, isn't it sweet [Outro] Isn't it sweet Isn't it sweet Isn't it sweet
