I hope you never change. I hope you never go.

I hope you'll always keep our little secret, though.

I know we always drink, but we don't always fight.

The landing lights are on, but we're just out of sight

And I'm not done yet, so hang on.

You came along to change the grade; To raise the bar I'd made of late.

You came along to raise the stakes; To tend to me and my mistakes.

I can't pretend that I could be the man you said you saw in me,

No-one came; No-one saw.

No-one came; No-one saw.

We're just blind pilots in strange planes.

Back seat drivers in dead cars.

Yeah, I made a list of all the things that I could change: How I could win.

But hang around and I'll try and land this thing.

[No-one came...]
