lyrics

I want to learn how to fly a plane.
Maybe build it from the ground up.
Then I could show all my friends,
that I was in the clouds.

I want to learn how to fly a plane.
Maybe fly out to the East coast
and play my songs, or sing along,
to all the tunes I hear.

Maybe I would take a trip for two.
Or maybe just a trip to make for you.
I steer my plane with all my friends.
They’d sing and play for you.

If I’ve the tools then I’ll make a plane.
She’ll be the prettiest one ever.
She’ll blind the sun and shine the sky
a brighter, warmer blue.

If planes held hands then I hold hers tight
just to make sure she lands safely.
I’d tell her why she means so much
before all of her flights.

Maybe I would take a trip for two.
Or maybe just a trip to make for you.
I steer my plane with all my friends.
They’d sing and play for you
Under the clouds below
I’ve memories from the show.

I’m gonna learn how to make a plane.
For now it’s gonna be paper.
I’ll throw it far
beyond the stars, and have it fly to you.

I want to learn how to fly a plane.
Maybe build it from the ground up.
Then I could show all my friends,
that I was in the clouds.
