There's an aircraft somewhere down by the river

The thing ran underground and it was completely soundless

Until we cut it down to size and then we galvanized it

I stare into the sky

And it keeps me flying high



Head to head we're staring equal sharing empty eyes

You've given everything to me

So if you really have to take off

I guess there's nothing I can say



Except I can't believe your plane is flying

It seems so heavy

I can't believe your plane is flying

It seems so heavy



Take a look around

You maybe think that you've found us

But nothing lies like no parade for the highest grade

It's time to call a spade, a spade

And it takes a while to realize

That everything around you is too beautiful



She keeps me out of telling lies

And understands that giving personality

Is what she's done for me

Oh yeah



I can't believe that your plane is flying

It seems so heavy

Watching from below, I'm reminded

My girl is ready

I can't believe that your plane is flying

It seems so heavy

Watching from below, I'm reminded

My girl is ready
