Propeller Planes
Bright and crisp, it's early morning
My little boy and me have a plan
Headed out to the local airport
To watch the planes take off and land
He asks me why they fly so high
I do my best to explain
He says "Dad lets be pilots and pretend...
We're flying our propeller planes, way above the clouds (small bold letters are 3rd chorus)
You can hold me up, but don't let me down (I will hold him up and never let him down)
When I'm all grown up I'm gonna fly away (When he's all grown up, he's gonna fly away)
But right now Dad it's me and you all day (But right now it's me and him all day)
And there's nothing better in this world
Than flyin our Propeller Planes
Verse2
He's growing up a mile a minute
Repeating every word I say
He watches everything I do
Then he does it his own way
He tells me why they fly so high
He points as he explains
then we both laugh as we pretend
Chorus 2 then Bridge
Wish I could slow down time, stay right here and now
But he's got mountains to climb, I'll try and show him how
Verse3
We all know they grow up fast
Easy to miss if you look away
watch them go and say a prayer
Hang on to memories like today
He tells me "look Dad I can fly"
There are no more words to explain
There's nothing better in this world
Chorus then vamps/tags and out
