Pilot in the Sky of Dreams (radio edit)

In heavy consternation I move across the hall

I pictured this so many times

I wasn't scared at all

But every time I got this far I never felt so small

My mind was full of questions

Of arguments and lies

But every word was melted down

When I looked in your eyes

And I don't need these memories

For now I'm mesmerized

And I'm staring down the barrel of my life

Now I'm entranced, you possess my full attention

How my thoughts dance freely on the journey

You intended all along, to somewhere I belong

Like a pilot in the sky of dreams

Can you promise me the world

And everything I need?

Can you promise me the world?

Can you promise me a sky?

That's trouble free and clear

So it's safe for me to fly

But who can stop my plane (stop my plane)

From drifting out of range? (far away)

Will this sky be precious to defend?

Will my sights go dark before the end?

Will I see the landing lights again?

Can you offer me the speed

To travel like the wind?

If I ever feel the need

Can you guarantee the sun

Won't melt away my wings

Way before my journey's done?

And who can stop my plane (stop my plane)

From drifting out of range? (far away)

Will this sky be precious to defend?

Will my sights go dark before the end?

Will I see the landing lights again?

Drifting away (drifting away)

Out of the grey and out of control

Such a nice day (such a nice day) for drifting away

What became of the blue horizon

Are you sure I was flying blind?

Never saw that the plane was diving

Never thought I was out of time

And now I'm disenchanted

You endure my disaffection

All my systems running red

The radio is down and there's trouble ahead

Get me back down

I lost my way and I want to be grounded

Get me back down

I lost my way coming out of the storm

Get me back down

I lost my way and I want to be grounded

Get me back down

I lost my way coming out of the storm

Did I promise you a sky

Where rain would never fall?

Or did you listen to a lie

Did you radio to base?

I waited for your call

But you left without a trace

But I could stop your plane (stop your plane)

From drifting out of range (far away)

Still this sky is precious to defend

Still your sights will last until the end

You will see the landing lights again

Now I'm entranced, you possess my full attention

How my thoughts dance freely on the journey

You intended all along, to somewhere I belong

Like a pilot in the sky of dreams
