lyrics
maybe he won't sell the bicycle shop
his dreams of flight won't amount to a hop
head in the clouds feet glued to jealous ground
conducts a parade known to start when it rains
facing a love that Newton's apple banned
to leave the heart land and on her heart land
fighting for flight but he's no Mr. Wright
from sea level what's in her's so far from sight
and so he prays
for windier days
take to the skies on a heavenly claw
his earthly binds taken to with a saw
a fatal game of twister to catch her eye
though he missed her he tried
once he kissed her he died
blue skies gained their reigns on the rain
his complex machine now something we call plain
she might come back but he'd still be the same
both return to from which they came
blue skies gained their reigns on the rain
his complex machine now something we call plane
she might come back but he'd still be the same
both return to from which they came
