I won’t ask how to get there,
I want to go astray
I believe in goodness
When we need it, it shows its face
It’s all like that at the get go
What I know I’d like to forget
I want to fly with the budget airlines
And eat wallpaper paste mashed potatoes
Time packs my suitcases
Long before I leave
Our lives are led by destiny
And the chances on the way
What you need, you can’t buy anyway
You’ll find that along the way
It’s all like that at the get go
It changes and nothing’s certain
Just the lights on the runway
And the hard airline seats
Our future is as certain
As the weather on the North Sea
They can forecast what they want
It only does what it wants to anyway
Tell me now, when are you coming?
I can hardly wait
I know you’re down there somewhere
And can see my airplane starting now
Time packs my suitcases
Long before I leave
Our lives are led by destiny
And the chances on the way
What you need, you can’t buy anyway
You’ll find that along the way
It’s all like that at the get go
It changes and nothing’s certain
Just the lights on the runway
And the hard airline seats
It will always be with us
It will always be with us
It will always be with us
Our old friend insecurity
Our lives are led by destiny
And the chances on the way
What you need, you can’t buy anyway
You’ll find that along the way
It’s all like that from the get go
It changes and nothing’s certain
Just the lights on the runway
And the hard airline seats
And the ending is open, as open as my heart
Only the lights on the runway
And the hard airline seats
The whole sky belongs to me
And otherwise nothing at all…
