Pilot In The Sky Of Dreams

In heavy consternation I move across the hall

I pictured this so many times and 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 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 way

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 systems 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 thoughts dance

Freely on the journey

You intended all along

To somewhere I belong

Like a pilot in the sky of dreams
