Airplanes Lyrics

Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right nowCan we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right nowI remember the first day of school
When you walked right next to me
You taught me everything that I know
And you always knew what to sayTime goes on
Now every word in every damn song
Reminds me of your face
You were part of me, you were part of meI didn't know everything I've got
Now I know that you are gone
Feel you right here next to me
Though I know that you've moved onBut the hardest thing of all is knowing
I didn't get to say
You were everything, you were everythingCan we pretend that airplanes

In the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right nowI'm praying that this stairway
Leads somewhere like heaven's door
And when you get there, don't look down
Don't look down, don't look downAnd all the people say
And all the people say
ListenPeople kill what they don't understand
All the legends, they die at the hands of lesser men
Jesus and JFK, and Marvin, and Biggie, man
I wonder if like after death was ever fair for them?Live in the moment, I was never really one to plan
So many things I wasn't meant ever to understand
What if Alice imagined her trip to Wonderland?
And why didn't Paul have shoes like the rest of them did?So many memories I passed up when I was away
And all the experiences I couldn't ever replace
All the million times my heart had a part of it break
I guess I'm harder for the hardships that I had to faceBefore every single show I pray 'til I sweat
I give my heart to a thousand people I never met
And then I let it all go, all the pain and regret
Hope God forgive me for the sins that I'm about to commitDon't wanna get by, I wanna excel
I know life is like the crossroads for heaven and hell
Right and wrong, sometimes it's just so hard to tell
But at least I'm saving others if I'm losing myselfCan we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right nowI'm praying that this stairway
Leads somewhere like heaven's door
And when you get there, don't look down
Don't look down, don't look downCan we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
