The Handsome Family (+) In the Air

The Handsome Family ☆ In the Air

I am afraid of bridges, sometimes I have to turn around

When I’m driving towards one, my heart begins to pound

Last night at the bridge to Johnsburg, I swerved down a dead-end street

I sat there shaking in an empty lot full of broken glass and weeds



Then past me in the darkness

Ran four wild dogs

Leaping over abandoned tires

High into the air



In the air, in the air

Someday I will live in the air



In the air, in the air

Someday I will live in the air



Once I loved a girl named Joan whose skin smelled just like falling snow

One day she drove us off the road into a dead field of corn

She laughed and hit the gas as we bounced along the rows

But I held onto the dashboard with my eyes tightly closed



Those wild dogs brought back

That smell of falling snow

And the girl who lives in Johnsburg

Across the bridge I cannot go



In the air, in the air

Someday I will live in the air
