"Aeroplane" lyrics - ROBERT PALMER

Say you'll write your story -
Pictures, dreams and letters
Get your past existence off your mind
Life is such a miracle
Every day brings changes into your life

You could easily
Tell her you know the melody
You could get over her
You keep consoling her
Like a black and white movie

If you miss your aeroplane
Then you've got nowhere else to call
Just hearing your romantic schemes
Can set my heart to thundering
I long to see your bright and smiling eyes

Babe, the stars are sparkling in your tears
You'd better take my handkerchief and dry your eyes
Love is such a miracle
Every day brings brings brand new life

Why hesitate?
Why compromise?
You're a friend of mine
Suddenly I am here with you
I won't get over you -
I want control of you
You'll have to make your own move
Once I get hold of you
I won't let go of you
I'll miss my aeroplane too
