small plane

bill callahan

you used to take me up

i watched and learned

how to fly

no navigation system

beyond our eyes

watching

i always went wrong in the same place

where the river splits towards the sea

that couldn't possibly be

you and me

sometimes you sleep while i take us home

that's when i know

we really have a home

i never like to land

getting back up seems impossibly grand

we do it with ease

danger

i never think of danger

i really am a lucky man

flying this small plane

i like it when i take the controls from you

and when you take the controls from me

i really am a lucky man

flying this small plane

eyes scan the path ahead

and all around
