There's a man holding onto a baby and it's screaming out your name There's one or two uptight women on this brand new plane Been held up in the frost in Moscow and I'm getting out fast Been deiced from my tail to my mast Five miles high and heading for you x 2 It seems that the longer you go for the crazier I get it always seems to happen and I've not been wrong yet My tank is overfull and my course has been set It's what you could call a maiden flight with no safety net Five miles high and heading for you x 2
I'm up front surrounded by the chinese eyes But I'm holding out until I feel the thunder thighs First thing I get to do when I get to see to your lively mind Is get upstairs in the hirise horse race and I'll be betting blind Five miles high x 3 Heading for you Getting more exotic every minute that we fly east Feeling kinda seasick at the very least There's lots of water flowed by since you've been gone There ain't no-one to touch you know where you belong Five miles high and heading for you x 2
