I'll Be Your Pilot - Belle & Sebastian

I’ve got your dreams completely

I’ve got them locked away

That doesn’t mean I own you

Or control a hair of your sweet head

I won’t leave you to suffer

I won’t let them prevail

I know a trap door, short cut

Gate into the wilds of the free air

Lying here in the sweet sahara

Thousand miles to the nearest problem

I see you sleep, it’s amazingly sweet

I will keep you safe

I’ll be your pilot

It’s tough to become a grown up

Put it off while you can

I tell you that when

You land in the real world

It’s like quick sand

Grabbing for what is owed you

Crying for what is gone

Playing the game to

Look and feel and think

The same as the next child

Lying here in the sweet sahara

Thousand miles to the nearest problem

I see you sleep, it’s amazingly sweet

I will keep you safe

I’ll be your pilot

Lying here with a busted engine

Sun and sky and the sound of silence

I feel your presence

No, it doesn’t make sense

You can sign me up

I’ll be your pilot
