Only Gravity

If you're a ship tied to the shore
Tethered by a ball of yarn
I wanna set you free
If you wake up in the eye of the storm
Where the wind howls all around
That's the place to be

Said the old man to me
Oh no, it's not the weight that holds you down
Oh no, it's not the wind that builds you up
Oh no, it's not the sky that sets you free
It's only gravity
It's only gravity

If you're lost somewhere tonight
On the roadside all alone
I wanna walk with you
Walk to the beat of a drum
That we heard so long ago
And it beats for you

And the old man said it's true
Oh no, it's not the sky that's tumbling down
Oh no, it's not the moon that moves the sea
Oh no, it's not the earth that holds you dear to me
It's only gravity
It's only gravity

If you're a ship tied to the shore
Tethered by a ball of yarn
I wanna set you free
