Fly from Here, Pt. II: Sad Night at the Airfield
There are no ground staff in the empty corridors
There's no one sleeping
No one awake
I'd start an engine in the night if only just to break the silence
That last intake
Of air
That clouds in the night as we breathe
Too late (you've missed your chance)
For even the night planes to leave
We can wait for dawn
To carry on
Then we can fly from here
We can fly from here
I want to be the one who always gives you shelter
Finds a way to
Keep you warm
I want to be the one
Who's always there beside you
But we both must
Face the dawn
Alone
So cruel like the world that we leave
Too late (you've missed your chance)
For even the night planes to leave
We can wait for dawn
To carry on
Then we can fly from here
We can fly from here
Only ghosts are in the empty corridors
And they're all strangers
Who never cared
I know them from some other life
When things were different
And we both were
In the air
Turn yourself around (turn yourself around)
Turn your life around (turn your life around)
Turn your world around (turn your world around)
Turn this ship around (turn this ship around)
The storm is coming
The wind will run you aground
All defences down
I watch the sky
I watch the sky
There's no one sleeping
No one awake
I'd start an engine in the night if only just to break the silence
That last intake
Of air
That clouds in the night as we breathe
Too late (you've missed your chance)
For even the night planes to leave
We can wait for dawn
To carry on
Then we can fly from here
We can fly from here
I want to be the one who always gives you shelter
Finds a way to
Keep you warm
I want to be the one
Who's always there beside you
But we both must
Face the dawn
Alone
So cruel like the world that we leave
Too late (you've missed your chance)
For even the night planes to leave
We can wait for dawn
To carry on
Then we can fly from here
We can fly from here
Only ghosts are in the empty corridors
And they're all strangers
Who never cared
I know them from some other life
When things were different
And we both were
In the air
Turn yourself around (turn yourself around)
Turn your life around (turn your life around)
Turn your world around (turn your world around)
Turn this ship around (turn this ship around)
The storm is coming
The wind will run you aground
All defences down
I watch the sky
I watch the sky
