The Aviator

[Verse 1] Riding on the moonpath in the silver of the night The fragrance on the air was of another time I cried in all my innocence, you were dressed in white And even if I'd had the strength, I couldn't move to save my life [Verse 2] The fear and the thrill of the beast at the window The shivers and the chills on the hottest of nights He walked right through my open door As I began to run, he threw some gold upon the floor, and said ''Plenty more where that came from'' [Chorus 1] I'm tired of the bombs I'm tired of the bullets I'm the aviator A dream's a dream whatever it seems, whatever it seems [Verse 3] I flew along the lighted streets, I flew above the town I flew in ever rising circles ever further from the ground As I begin to lose my breath, faces turn and spin A distant corner of the room will open up and let me in [Chorus 2] I'm tired of the news I'm tired of the weather I'm the aviator A dream's a dream whatever they say, whatever they say [Instrumental Break] [Verse 4] I flew along the lighted streets, I flew above the town I flew in ever rising circles ever further from the ground I cried in all my innocence, you were dressed in white And even if I'd had the strength I couldn't move to save my life [Chorus 3] I'm tired of the bombs I'm tired of the bullets I'm tired of the crazies on TV I'm the aviator A dream's a dream whatever it seems [Chorus 2] And I'm tired of the news Tired of the weather Tired of the same thing every day I'm the aviator A dream's a dream whatever they say, whatever they say [Guitar Solo Outro]
