Lyrics for I'll Be Your Pilot

I've got your dreams completely I've got them locked away That doesn't mean I own you Or control a hair of your sweet head I won't leave you to suffer I won't let them prevail I know a trap door, short cut Gate into the wilds of the free air Lying here in the sweet Sahara Thousand miles to the nearest problem I see you sleep, it's amazingly sweet I will keep you safe I'll be your pilot It's though to become a grown up Put it off while you can I tell you that when You land in the real world It's like quick sand Grabbing for what is owed you Crying for what is gone Playing the game to Look and feel and think The same as the next child Lying here in the sweet Sahara Thousand miles to the nearest problem I see you sleep, it's amazingly sweet I will keep you safe I'll be your pilot Lying here with a busted engine Sun and sky and the sound of silence I feel your presence No, it doesn't make sense You can sign me up I'll be your pilot
