I Guess We Weren'T Really Pilots
At one time, we flew.
Nothing could stop our momentum.
There was a path forged in the time
that we made for each other.
You stepped in and stopped my
madness. Atleast for a short time.
You gave me peace.
For this period of love, we both knew
it's beauty but we both soon forgot.
In time, we left love in the dark.
At one time, we flew.
Although we crashed, and our wings
were badly burned, I've kept my eyes
on love. Though it's not the love I had
for you. It's the love for the only thing
you gave me that matters anymore.
Now we are teaching Rio how to fly.
Her wings are every beautiful piece
of us that we ever had to give.
It's unfortunate ours were catching fire.
At one time, we flew.
