Bird in an Aeroplane

Feathered to the tips
Light weight but strong
I can only go this long
Iron steel and smoke
Your power is endless
I'm only flesh and bones
Every machine has a promise to break
Stuck in a dream that I cannot escape
I pray for hurricanes
You take off when I want to stay
Out of steam I'm off terrain
I'm a bird in an aeroplane
Crossing continents
We're going in loops
Tell me will we ever land
Longing to return
To somewhere I've known something quite familiar ooh
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
We're flying over mountains higher every day
I'm trying to keep up
Trying to match your game
While you are gaining height I 'm fading into grey
And away…
[Chorus]
