Lyrics

Friendly Fires

[Chorus]

Flying so high

Flying so high

You can hear them

You can see them

They're on their wave

They're on their wave

Over to you

[Verse 1]

No one can escape

This kind of war

Forty thousand feet

Above the floor

And the little children

Have nowhere to run

They don't even know what's going on

[Chorus]

Flying so high

Flying so high

You can hear them

You can see them

They're on their wave

They're on their wave

Over to you
