VERSE

I set my course and autopilot.

I tried to fly around the weather.

Some of my instruments were broken.

I flew straight into the storm.

VERSE

It's touch and go when we’re together.

Our frequency is breaking up.

I'm pulling back upon the joystick.

You get the landing gear unstuck.

CHORUS

I think about you when I'm up here.

When I sleep you're in my dreams.

Still can't believe that we're together.

And how bright everything seems.

We're so together, in a slipstream

the turbulence can be rough.

Hurtling forces to the heavens/thin air

Have I got speed enough?

CHORUS

Don't ever let them see you cryin'

Don't let them cross over your path.

How do you keep it all together?

Facing the aftermath!

Don't ever let them catch you lyin'

Why don't you roll another smoke?

No wonder everybody loves you.

You always hold on to hope.

(Too big a bite and you'll choke).
