I can't explain in words
At least none that I've heard
And even if I could

Who cares?

There's something slightly strange

You really can't explain
The quality of light
Around this time of year


Look up into the sky
And you can see the sun

Reflecting off the
Body of an aeroplane


The people that we knew
Whoever they might be
The like of them will

Never pass this way again

The saddest thing of all


The saddest thing for sure
This time there might not

Be a happy ending

So just you mark my words

With your brightly coloured lips
And that should warm things up
At least a little bit


Look up into the sky
And you can see the sun

Reflecting off the
Body of an aeroplane


The people that we knew
Whoever they might be
The like of them will

Never pass this way again
