Lyrics

"Now From The Airplane Windows"

In the olden days of yore
Among those perfect squares of green
Pioneers who came before
Would look up here and dream

With a key and a kite
They changed the world of long ago
And in a sea of glistrning lights
The dark ages glow

(Chorus

And now from the airplane windows
We look ahead and on we ride
Though rain still falls
And the restless wind blows
But everything we came here for
We always had inside

In these modern times we've learned
To move with more velocity
As a page of history turns
To close the century

And though we've reached
The moon in flight
Since we broke the speed of sound
We must achieve the speed of light
To reach higher ground

(Chorus)

And now from the airplane windows
We look ahead and on we'll ride
Where rains don't fall
And no restless wind blows
But everything we go there for
We always had inside
