LYRICS

Waving to strangers and aeroplanes

We've been working so hard

But couldn't let this time go past

A life of District Lines and traffic jams

But you make it make sense

I wouldn't have it any other way

​

I see myself in your face

I see myself in your eyes

You can turn things upside-down

And you do, that's fine

Play me all the way

​

And when you're feeling pain

We'll I feel it too

You can turn things inside-out

And if you're feeling down

You don't even have to speak

​

Waving to strangers and aeroplanes

Like a name carved in rock

You're etched until the end of time

Fooling around on sunny days

You're mothers smile

Blue eyes shining in and out of light

​

I see myself in your face

I see myself in your eyes

You can turn things inside-out

And if you're feeling down

You don't even need to say

​

I see myself in your face

I see myself in your eyes

You can turn things upside-down

But know I'll never forget

That spring-day in the snow

​

Waving to strangers and aeroplanes

And when you grow

I'll tell you all you need to know

I'm there in your blood

There when you talk

There in your thoughts

And watching while you're sleeping

​

I see myself in your face

I see myself in your eyes

You can turn things inside-out

And when you're feeling pain

You don't even need to speak

I see myself in your face

I see myself in your eyes

You can turn things upside-down

But everything's forgotten 

In that moment when we laugh

​

And if the distance between us

Is too much too bare

Remember each step you take

Is on a path I made

And when you grow

You can be who you want to

There's nothing to hold you back

You'll have you're own spring day in the snow
