[Verse 1]
Way up in the clouds
Angels don't fly
Big silver birds
Re-writing the sky
Taxi & take off now
I close your eyes
Look out of the window
Watch the ground die

[Chorus]
I live all day to vacate the place I love uh huh
I work all day to leave the way I live behind

[Verse 2]
Way down on the ground
People don't fly
But here we are at the airport
Like ladybirds in July
Just like back at home
I wish that you were here
If I had a cellular phone
I'd drown it in my beer

[Chorus]
I live all day-to vacate the place-I love-uh huh
I work all day-to leave the way I live-behind
Behind, behind, behind, behind
Behind, behind, behind, behind
[Verse 3]
I was once like you
Dreaming you were me
Locked inside your pretty head
Wishing you were free (Wishing I was free)
You were so different then
But I was roughly the same (I was roughly the same)
Love was in your pretty head
But sex was on my brain

[Chorus]
I live all day-to vacate the place-I love-uh huh
I work all day-to leave the way I live-behind
I live all day-to vacate the place-I love-uh huh
I save all day-to leave the way I live-behind
To leave the way I live behind
To leave the way I live behind
To leave the way I live behind
To leave the way I live behind

[Outro]
Behind, behind, behind, behind
[Repeat and fade out]
