This silver bird takes me âcross the sky
Just one more hour and Iâll be home and dry
âCross the ocean, way above the clouds I come stealinâ.
Feelinâ tired, but I feel good
Cause I did everything I said I would
I think of you, and I know how youâll be feelinâ.
I gotta see you, I gotta be with you
Weâll make it better now in every way
Itâs gotta be you, itâs gotta be you
Yes from now on Iâll tell you everyday.
Way up here above this timeless sea
I realize just what it is you mean to me
You give me somethinâ when I thought that everything we had was dyinâ.
I need a reason just to make me carry on
Well I know better now, I know where I belong
I canât imagine how I ever let myself just give up tryinâ.
I gotta see you, I gotta be with you
Weâll make it better now in every way
Itâs gotta be you, itâs gotta be you
Yes from now on Iâll tell you everyday.
Oooooh, yes home and dry.
Ainât nothinâ up here gonna slow me down
You know I never ever take the long way âround
I think of you, cause I know how youâll be feelinâ.
This silver bird takes me âcross the sky
Just one more hour and Iâll be home and dry
âCross the ocean, way above the clouds I come stealinâ.
I gotta see you, I gotta be with you
Weâll make it better now in every way
Itâs gotta be you, itâs gotta be you
Yes from now on Iâll tell you everyday.
Oooooh, yes home and dry.
