I hope you never change
|
I hope you never go
|
I hope you always keep
|
Our little secrets though
|
But how'd we get here
|
At this height
|
And what's this talk of
|
Dead weight
|
|
I know we always drink
|
But we don't always fight
|
The landing lights are on
|
But we're just out of sight
|
Cos this thing's mobile
|
There's still wheels
|
And I'm not done yet
|
So hang on
|
|
You came along to change the grade
|
To raise the bar I'd made of late
|
You came along to raise the stakes
|
To tend to me and my mistakes
|
I can't pretend that I could be
|
The man you said you saw in me
|
But hang around and I'll try and land this thing
|
|
Noone came
|
Noone saw
|
Someone pass the manual
|
|
And soon I'll go away
|
I'll see you at the door
|
So go put David on
|
Read about the war
|
We're just blind pilots
|
In strange planes
|
Back seat drivers
|
In dead cars
|
|
You came along to change the grade
|
To raise the bar I'd made of late
|
You came along to raise the stakes
|
To tend to me and my mistakes
|
I can't pretend that I could be
|
The man you said you saw in me
|
But hang around and I'll try and land this thing
|
Yeah I made a list of all the things
|
That I could change how I could win
|
I can't and I refuse to say
|
The wheels have slowly come away
|
I pray to God my soul to keep
|
Cos I could never stand the heat
|
But hang around and I'll try and land this thing
|
|
Noone came
|
Noone saw
|
Someone pass the manual
|
