I was in the air when the towers came down In a bar on the 84th floor I walked Philippe Petit around And asked what is Hogwarts for He says I put one foot out on the wire One foot straight into heaven As the prophets enter fully into the bar On the Boeing 737 Lord, on the Boeing 737 Ever will you be the one To dance beneath my gallant gun There's something left I call my own Come down and build me a home I was in the bar with every guitar Trying to leave all my sins The barmaid asked my order And where my mind had been I tried to recall the high wire Philippe Petit's foot there in heaven As the prophets enter fully into the bar On the Boeing 737 Lord, on the Boeing 737 Ever will you be the one To dance beneath my gallant gun There's nothing left I call my own So come down and build me a home Ever will you be the one To dance beneath my gallant gun There's nothing left I call my own Come down and build me a home Come down and build me a home
