Often these days and always these nights
I find I'm afraid of the turbulent heights
No matter how crazily, no matter how far
The moments of tenderness are those where you are

For when you are laughing like silver, like rain
You cool me, you soothe me and love me again
For a few perfect hours the world lets me be
You know how to calm down

Oh, oh
The panic in me
The panic in me
The panic in me
The panic in me

Once in a while I slip back to my past
Where I long to remain but the dream does not last
In the trials of the present no matter how low
You bring me such peace and you won't let me go

For when you are laughing like silver, like rain
You cool me, you soothe me and love me again
For a few perfect hours the world lets me be
You know how to break down

Oh, oh
The panic in me
The panic in me
The panic in me
The panic in me

In the trials of the present no matter how low
You bring me such peace and you won't let me go
Oh, don't let me go

For when you are laughing like silver, like rain
You cool me, you soothe me and you love me again
For a few perfect hours the world lets me be
You know how to break down

Oh, oh, oh, oh
The panic in me
The panic in me
The panic in me
The panic in me
The panic in me
