A lonely man leaps from a mountain town   I stop him as if he's half way down   Ask him what he's learned about the trip   He shyly smiles and moves his lip      A great day for a car crash   A pleasant day to make a change      Chorus:   The only thing left to do   Is pull on my parachute   It will take longer to land   But I can stand   And if I can count on you   To pull on your parachute   We will share time in the air   While we descend      Someone take away his gravity   He doesn't see he's plummeting   Gaining speed and twisting silently   Oh, he's sure to hit a street of trees      A great day for the cancer   A pleasant day to play it safe      Repeat Chorus      He is not an arrow   But he knows the rest of us know   That he'll fly and he'll try   And when he comes crashing   The answers will flash in our face      The only thing left to do   Is pull on my parachute   It will take longer to land   But I can stand   And if I can count on you   To pull on your parachute   We will share time in the air   I just care that you're aware   But they'll have to meet us there      (Repeat Chorus in background)      Yeah...
