Drifting out of time Something on your mind And I wanna be the one that you Call when you get down No matter where you are in the World I'll be around Fly me away on an aeroplane High in the sky Wanna see you again Wanna know this time Gonna tell you what I'm feeling Gonna know this time Gonna get it back that feeling Miles and miles of sun Endless roads twist on Don't wanna live a life in A world that's all the same The crazy little things that You do are so magical This crazy life This crazy world We're living in is magical
