I hope you never change. I hope you never go.
I hope you'll always keep our little secret, though.
But how'd we get here? -At this height?
And what's this talk of dead weight?
I know we always drink, but we don't always fight.
The landing lights are on, but we're just out of sight
'cos this thing's mobile; There's still wheels.
And I'm not done yet, so hang on.
You came along to change the grade; To raise the bar I'd made of late.
You came along to raise the stakes; To tend to me and my mistakes.
I can't pretend that I could be the man you said you saw in me,
But hang around and I'll try and land this thing.
No-one came; No-one saw.
No-one came; No-one saw.

And soon I'll go away. I'll see you at the door.
So go put David on; Read about the war.
We're just blind pilots in strange planes.
Back seat drivers in dead cars.

Yeah, I made a list of all the things that I could change: How I could win.

I pray to God my soul to keep 'cos I could never stand the heat.
But hang around and I'll try and land this thing.
[No-one came...]
