Day 03 - A song that makes you happy

[sally_maria]

Songs make me happy for all sorts of reasons, but this has tickled me ever since the first time I heard it. A classic British winter song, from a children's animated film, originally sung by a boy soprano, but this is a cover version by one of Europe's biggest metal bands, and it works so wonderfully well. :-)

Walking in the Air by Nightwish

Walking In The Air

We're walking in the air
We're floating in the moonlit sky
The people far below are sleeping as we fly

I'm holding very tight
I'm riding in the midnight blue
I'm finding I can fly so high above with you

Far across the world
The villages go by like dreams
The rivers and the hills, the forests and the streams

Children gaze open mouthed
Taken by surprise
Nobody down below believes their eyes

We're surfing in the air
We're swimming in the frozen sky
We're drifting over icy mountains floating by

Suddenly swooping low
On an ocean deep
Rousing up a mighty monster from his sleep

And walking in the air
We're dancing in the midnight sky
And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly

We're walking in the air
We're walking in the air
