Fallen Planes

a song

VERSE 1:

In this city dwells

The light of abandoned dreams of men

Who all cry and swell

When they are left again

The rooftops seem to blend

Among the setting sun and sky

The way our faces mend

This gap that lies between our eyes

PRE-CHORUS 1:

Papers fly like birds

That carry a stranger's words

CHORUS:

Then our fallen planes

Fall in love among the streets

Where the lonely reins

But not over our am'rous sheets

VERSE 2:

When that time of day

Comes 'round to make you feel alone

Think of what I say

And if it lingers in your bones

Then in haste I'll write

The words that make it all seem clear

And in their dire flight

They'll come and make me seem so near

PRE-CHORUS 2:

The city sits and waits

To see the love it separates

CHORUS:

Then our fallen planes

Fall in love among the streets

Where the lonely reins

But not over our am'rous sheets

INTERLUDE

CHORUS:

Then our fallen planes

Fall in love among the streets

Where the lonely reins

But not over our am'rous sheets
