Anyone know the artist and title that go with these lyrics? (Recent pop song)

I've heard this on the radio a few times and I'll be damned if I can figure it out. Rather than calling up the DJ and singing it to him to find out (which I actually did once and of course which was broadcasted to most of southern new england and the listening internet audience, embarassingly enough) I thought I'd ask here. Usually I'd just plug in the bits of lyrics I know into Altavista, and it has always in the past popped up some lyrics page, but not this time.

Here are bits of the lyrics I know:

"This is all I wanna feel tonight..."

"...fell to earth, with dripping wings..."

"...light as air, floating there, breathlessly"

Sorry, but that's all I have to go on That and that it's a female singer. Thanks in advance!

Down to the earth I fell
With dripping wings,
Heavy things won't fly
And the sky might catch on fire
And burn the axis of the world
That's why
I prefer a sunless sky
To the glittering and stinging in my eye

Feel so light
This is all I wanna feel tonight
Feel so light
Tonight and the rest of my life

Gleaming in the darksea
I'm as light as air
Floating there breathlessly
When the dream dissolves I open up my eyes
I realize that
Everything is shoreless sea
Weightlessness is passing over me

Feel so light
This is all I wanna feel tonight
Feel so light
Tonight and the rest of my life

Everthing is waves and stars
The universe is resting in my arms

I feel so alive
This is all I wanna feel tonight
I feel so light
Tonight and the rest of my life
