Captain (Million Miles an Hour)

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

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

It's just a model

Built with plastic and with glue

But everyday I go down to the airport

And I fly away from

I fly away from you

I fly away from you
