Steve Fairclough - Night Planes Lyrics

I like to watch the Night Planes
Down into Heathrow and right back up again
'Cos they remind me of the places I've been
And Friends I haven't seen in so long

I like to watch the Night Planes
Take their spaces in the flight lanes
Half the world in just a day
Taking people who can pay, and want so much to fly away

Yea I like to watch the Night Planes
Flying high above the wind and rain
'Til all that's left is a vapour trail of fumes
And from this little hotel room I wave 'em on...

See, I believe we come into this world alone
And when its time our spirit takes off on its own
And so for all the ones whose soul's have already flown
They're just like Night Planes headed home

I like to watch the Night Planes
Down into Heathrow and right back up again
'Cos they remind me of the places I've been
And Friends I haven't seen in so long
