"Jumbo" lyrics - CURVED AIR

I flew home through the night, so I'd be home for the dawn.
Down through the clouds, the land beneath all covered in green.

Fly me on my way home, I've been away for so long,
Speed me on my way home, I've missed you for so long.

Sat back, watching the film, don't ask me what it was called,
For all my thoughts were far away with people I knew.
They said things over there might be a little bit strange,
But all I found the same but more, with people like me.

Fly me on my way home, I've been away for so long,
Speed me on my way home, I've missed you for so long.

They said I might survive, whereas others had died,
Stay in your room after dark, don't venture outside.
I'm glad I'm comin' home, back to the ways that I know,
Even though I'm glad I've seen, I'm comin' home.

Fly me on my way home, I've been away for so long,
Speed me on my way home, I've missed you for so long.
