Captain, (Million Miles An Hour) Lyrics

i built an aeroplane
it was just like the real ones that i saw when i was younger
but it was too small for me
to crawl inside the cockpit and fly away
at a million miles an hour
at a million miles an hour
at a million miles an hour
at a million miles an hour

and it took me years
underneath the house we lived in
i threw my head and my heart in the cockpit
the sounds of the engines
the voices from upstairs i only heard my crew
preparing me for take off
preparing me for take off
preparing me for take off
preparing me for take off
preparing me
preparing me

and it's just a model
built with plastic and with glue
but every day i go down to the airport
and i fly away from
i fly away from you
i fly away from you
