Captains of the Sky

LETRA

Captains of the Sky

Mid-air, I woke up beneath the flight deck
On a wallpaper airplane
As you stared, I strapped my helmet on
And left your driveway behind

Flutter all through the night
And we can pull the clouds around this paper hanger sky-light
Summer smile again, and you can disappear
But I'd rather be here

Dive bomb, we descended down the staircase
And crashed to the kitchen floor
So long, our flight of dowdy dreams
Preened our soft-paper wings

Flutter all through the night
And we can pull the clouds around this paper hanger sky-light
Summer smile again, and you can disappear
But I'd rather be here

Hello down there, the mooring made of sailors in the air
Keeping the midnight stars held high
We are captains of the sky
Waving goodbye

Hello down there, the mooring made of sailors in the air
Keeping the midnight stars held high
We are captains of the sky
Waving goodbye

Hello down there, the mooring made of sailors in the air
Keeping the midnight stars held high
We are captains of the sky
Waving goodbye
