Lyrics to the song Gone Flying as recorded by Phil Manzanera.


GONE FLYING

Words & Music by Phil Manzanera & Bill MacCormack

If the days seem dark and sour
Distance surrounds you
Keep your head above the clouds
Try to push up through

Gone flying
And the days are fun
Leave the world behind
Gone flying
Head towards the sun
We'll give you peace of mind

Now you're sure you're on the up
Take a hit on love
We'll find a girl
There ain't no doubt
Fit you like a glove

Gone flying
And the days are fun
Leave the world behind
Gone flying
Head towards the sun
We'll give you peace of mind

Take away your cares today
Take away your strife
Take away your thoughts of pain
Take away your life

Gone flying
Leave the world behind
It's the only way
Gone flying
Give you peace of mind
You do what we say

Gone flying
Leave the world behind
There wasn't so much fun
Gone flying
Take away your mind
You'll burn up in the sun

Gone Flying
