    WALKING ON AIR
    Close your eyes and look at me
    i’ll be standing by your side
    in between the deep blue sea
    and the sheltering sky
    if we find no words to say
    to the rhythm of the waves
    then we’ll both surrender there
    walking on air
    And the worries of the day lie down
    under cover of the fading clouds
    the secrets of the night
    come alive in your eyes
    you don’t have to hurry
    you don’t have to try
    cause you don’t have a care
    you’re walking on air

      A band they directly inspired, Between the Buried and Me, does the same kind of thing but they're modern progressive metal. They're the reason I discovered King Crimson and they're also my favorite band. Check out their song "Backwards Marathon", and listen to the whole thing!

    I'd rather glossed over this song when the album came out. Coming back to it years later I can't believe what I'd missed; it's like discovering a new KC song! Someone mentioned Lennon, but I hear Hendrix too in the verse part. yet most of all I hear pure KC, finding that one moment of peace each of their albums manages to find.

    "Паришь над землёй"
    Закрой глаза - я буду в твоём взоре
    Стоять рядом с тобою здесь:
    Между глубоким синим морем
    И покровом небес.
    Слов не найдя, что будут произнесены
    Под ритм волны, -
    Тогда останется нам с тобой
    Парить над землёй.
    И улягутся тревоги дня
    Под покровом тающих облаков.
    Тайны ночи
    Оживают в твоих глазах.
    И незачем спешить,
    И незачем пытаться.
    Ничто не властно над тобой -
    Ты паришь над землёй.
    И улягутся тревоги дня
    Под покровом тающих облаков.
    Тайны ночи
    Оживают в твоих глазах.
    И незачем спешить,
    И незачем пытаться.
    Ничто не властно над тобой -

    I cry only to yearn for her, my hands shake I tremble onto my knees I am awash of anything other within the presence of need! She is here and guided by one; like freshly fallen snow I am everywhere and yet none. Pondering her my sweet loving child of the sun and forever young as she is eternal and it’s why I am not. I solidify myself and willingly drown in her vast radiance behold her divinity a thousand fold the power of the sun, this child of light and the bread of life as I burn and vanish within her mesmerizing auras of a billion dancing flames I am finally one with her essence,..past, future and present…
