Lyrics for Small Plane
You used to take me up I watched and learned How to fly No navigation system Beyond our eyes Watching I always went wrong in the same place Where the river splits towards the sea That couldn't possibly be You and me Sometimes you sleep while I take us home That's when I know We really have a home I never like to land Getting back up seems impossibly grand We do it with ease Danger, I never think of danger I really am a lucky man I really am a lucky man Flying this small plane I like it when I take the controls from you And when you take the controls from me I really am a lucky man I really am a lucky man Flying this small plane Eyes scan the path ahead And all around
