Phil Gawen - Flyboy (Save the World) Lyrics

Well, he was just a boy in revelry
He had a little plane to fly on East
He had that look in his eyes
The one to save the world

And I remember the day I felt so proud
He made it straight from Sweden to Moscow
He had a heart to mend
The one to save the world

And he would land on Red Square
Something no one would dare
Handing out his leaflets
Shake the hands of this heavenly angel
Shaking hands as they gathered in numbers
Shaking hands with his cards on the table

The secret police dragged him off
To interrogate their own mistake
Forgetting what he sacrificed, non-violence

Some politicians said how stupid
How he disturbed a delicate situation
How the West and East
Are trying to save the world

I don't believe they had his passion
Cause if they did, we'd face salvation
No, and I don't believe they're
Out to save the world

Do you care to match yourself?
Against the point he tried to make
And does it touch you in any way at all

A boy faces and ideology
The consequences strangle liberty
Oh, make him a hero for peace
Oh, give him a pat on the back

Nobody saved the world
Am I to save the world?
