We Can Fly from Here

Along the edge of this airfield

The old prop shaft airliners stand

Altimeters reading zero

Formless memories lingering

Nights are cold on this airfield

I sit alone and watch the radar

Locked on the wavelength

Caught in the beam

Falling slowly into the screen

Every day that you wait is one more that

you've lost

When you wake up

I see you there

On display

Like some final point of no return

Taking us there from here

And we can fly from here

And we can fly from here

And we can fly from here

Into the sky that's clearing

Look back we'll dry the tears

For those once held so nearly

In love we'll never disappear

Along the edge of this airfield

The old prop shaft airliners stand

Altimeters reading zero

Formless memories lingering

And we can fly from here

Into a sky so clearly

Look back we'll dry the tears

For those once held so nearly

And we can fly from here

And we can fly from here

And we can fly from here

On the understanding

That we can fly

Every day that you wait is one more that

you've lost

On display

Like some final point of no return

Every day that you wait is one more that

you've lost

On display

Like some final point of no return
