Flying apart
By David Hawes
Flying apart
(Verse 1)
The space between us
It's so far, it's so far to measure
But the love between us
That's really, that's really what I treasure
(Verse 2)
When we get to be hand in hand
Oh, the times they're far too rare
And whenever I have to leave
I just wanna be back, be back with you right there
(Chorus)
But we're flying apart, we're flying apart
Heading for different lands, it's not by desire
And as the Triple 7 climbs
With it too, I know my grief will get higher and higher
Yeah we're flying apart, we're flying apart
Until next time we fly together
And I know baby that I'll forget you, that I'll forget you never
(Verse 3)
At the final check-in, with others around
We somehow nonchalantly say our goodbyes
But soon enough I know there'll be tears
There'll be tears that stream from, tears that stream from my eyes
(Chorus)
But we're flying apart, we're flying apart
Heading for different lands, it's not by desire
And as the Triple 7 climbs
With it too, I know my grief will get higher and higher
Yeah we're flying apart, we're flying apart
Until next time we fly together
And I know baby that I'll forget you, that I'll forget you never
(Verse 4)
So, as I leave you behind
In my mind JK's singing that song
Like a grounded angel left behind
Seeing you again, seeing you again, it'd better not be too long
(Chorus)
But we're flying apart, we're flying apart
Heading for different lands, it's not by desire
And as the Triple 7 climbs
With it too, I know my grief will get higher and higher
Yeah we're flying apart, we're flying apart
Until next time we fly together
And I know baby that I'll forget you, that I'll forget you never
(Final chorus fade out)
Yeah, we're flying apart, we're flying apart
It's not by desire
And yeah babe, my grief, my grief, it's getting higher and higher
Yeah we're flying apart, we're flying apart
Until next time we fly together
And I know baby that I'll forget you, that I'll forget you never
I know baby that I'll forget you, that I'll forget you...
...Never.
