They say that people fall in love
I beg to disagree
It’s really more a catapult:
You’re launched, then flying free

Swirling, twirling through the air
The world around you spins
Like nothing you have ever seen
At heights you’ve never been

You catch your breath
Such beauty!
Surrounds you and within
Your happiness just radiates
You feel your life begin

Whether you are young or old
The newness is so crisp
Everything is wonderful
Everything is bliss

And as you’re arcing through the air
Your momentum slows
A view you still appreciate
But that thrill is gone

And now, as you approach the earth
How will the landing go?
Firm and safe in coupledom? 
Or do you hit the road?
