My father was a pilot
Flying high above the clouds
Never high enough to leave his thoughts
Or low enough to hear his shouts
He's high enough to be a bird flying free among the clouds
Yet low enough to land a man and walk again with troubled doubts
He's up there all alone
With no one to hold
But I can see him every night
The man in the moon with the rocket eyes
He's high enough to be a bird flying free among the clouds
Yet low enough to land a man and walk again with troubled doubts
He's high enough to be a bird flying free among the clouds
Yet low enough to land a man and walk again with troubled doubts
My father was a pilot
If only I could see him now
He's high enough, above the clouds
