Along the edge of this airfield The old prop-shaft airliners stand Altimeters reading zero Formless memories lingering
Nights are cold on this airfield I sit alone and watched the radar Locked on the wavelength Caught in the beep Falling slowly into the screen
Every day that you wait Is one more that you lost When you wake up I see you there on display in lights A final point of no return Taking us there from here
And we can fly from here And we can fly from here And we can fly from here
Into a sky that's clearing Look back, we'll dry the tears For those once held so dearly And love will never disappear
Along the edge of this airfield The old prop-shaft airliners stand Altimeters reading zero Formless memories lingering Lingering, lingering, lingering
And we can fly from here Into a sky so clearly Look back, we'll dry the tears For those once held so dearly
And we can fly from here And we can fly from here And we can fly from here And we can fly from here And we can fly from here On the understanding that we can fly
Every day that you waste Is one more that you've lost On display in lights A final point of no return
Every day that you waste Is one more that you've lost On display in lights A final point of no return
