They say love is blind
Tampers with the mind
So call 999
Get them on the line
Now earth's out of sight
Two planes pass in the night
Don't you know I'm tired
Need some peace and quiet
Ah I'm not there
Staring at the sun
'Til the colours run
Staring at the sun
'Til the colours run
I am ascending
You are descending
We've been pretending
Our whole lives
And then we'll be crash landing
On this long haul flight
Am I the pilot
Or the passenger?
We're going higher
With the engine on fire
Learning how to hide
You're getting hard to find
Don't say it's goodbye
Just stay for tonight
This heaven ain't mine
Treats me so unkind
Something in the wine
Too much makes me cry
Ah I'm not there
Staring at the sun
'Til the colours run
Staring at the sun
'Til the colours run
You missed your connection
You lost your reception
We're going backwards in time
And then we'll be crash landing
On the dark side
Am I the pilot
Or the passenger?
We're going higher
With the engine on fire
White wing that glides on the blue
She's given up and stopped looking for you
You can't follow she'll be gone tomorrow
She'll disappear like thin air
Seatbelt on and ribbons in her hair
Headphones in and her jacket on the chair
She'll touch down in a new time zone
Then she'll disappear like thin air
Ah ah I'm not there
Ah ah I'm not there
I'm on thin air
Am I the pilot
Or the passenger?
We're going higher
With the engine on fire
