- Pilot In The Sky of Dreams

 

In heavy consternation
I move across the hall,
I pictured this so many times,
I wasn't scared at all?
But every time I got this far,
I never felt so small?

My mind was full of questions,
Of Arguments and lies,
But every word was melted down,
When I looked in your eyes,
And I don't need these memories,
For now I'm mesmerised?

And I'm staring down
The barrel of my life?

Now I'm entranced,
You possess my full attention,
How my thoughts dance
Freely on the journey you intended all along,
To somewhere I belong,
Like a pilot in the the sky of dreams.

Can you promise me the world,
And everything I need,
Can you promise me the world?
Can you promise me a sky,
That's trouble free and clear,
So it's safe for me to fly?

But who can stop my plane (stop my plane)
From drifting out of range? (far away)

Will this sky be precious to defend,
Will my sights go dark before the end?
Will I see the landing lights again?

Can you offer me the speed
To travel like the wind,
If I ever feel the need?
Can you guarantee the sun
Won't melt away my wings
Way before my journey's done?

And who can stop my plane (stop my plane)
From drifting out of range? (far away)

Will this sky be precious to defend,
Will my sights go dark before the end?
Will I see the landing lights again?

Drifting away (drifting away),
Out of the grey and out of control,
Such a nice day (such a nice day) for drifting away?

What became of the blue horizon?
Are you sure I was flying blind,
Never saw that the plane was diving,
Never thought I was out of time,

And now I'm disenchanted,
You endure my disaffection,
All my system's running red,
The radio is down and there's trouble ahead!

Get me back down,
I lost my way and I want to be grounded,
Get me back down,
I lost my way coming out of the storm!

Did I promise you a sky,
Where rain would never fall,
Or did you listen to a lie?
Did you radio to base?
I waited for your call,
But you left without a trace?

But I could stop your plane (stop your plane)
From drifting out of range (far away)

Still this sky is precious to defend,
Still your sights will last until the end!
You will see the landing lights again?

Now I'm entranced,
You possess my full attention,
How my thought dance
Freely on the journey you intended all along,
To somewhere I belong,
Like a pilot in the sky in the sky of dreams.
