Airplanes
B.O.B & Hayley Williams (fra Paramore) Lyrics

Can we pretend that airplanes In the night sky are like shooting stars?
Can we imagine airplanes looking like shooting stars in the night sky?

I could really use a wish right now Wish right now Wish right now
I truly need a wish to be granted, right now, immediately

Yeah, I could use a dream or a genie or a wish To go back to a place much simpler than this
I wish I could have a dream or a genie to take me back to a simpler time

'Cause after all the partyin' and smashin' and crashin' And all the glitz and the glam and the fashion And all the pandemonium and all the madness There comes a time where you fade to the blackness
After all the fun, parties, and chaos, there comes a time when everything fades to black and becomes meaningless

And when your starin' at that phone in your lap And you're hopin' but them people never call you back
When you're staring at your phone, hoping someone will call you back

But that's just how the story unfolds You get another hand soon after you fold
That's simply how life plays out, you get another chance once things go wrong

And when your plans unravel in the sand What would you wish for if you had one chance?
When your plans fall apart, what would be the one thing you'd wish for if given the chance?

So airplane, airplane, sorry I'm late I'm on my way so don't close that gate If I don't make that then I'll switch my flight And I'll be right back at it by the end of the night
I'm on my way, don't close the gate, and if I miss my flight, I'll switch it and still make it there by the end of the night

Yeah, yeah, somebody take me back to the days Before this was a job, before I got paid
Take me back to the days before music was a profession and before I made money from it

I'm guessin' that if we can make some wishes outta' airplanes Then maybe yo maybe I'll go back to the days Before the politics that we call the rap game
If we can make wishes out of airplanes, maybe I can go back to the days before the politics of the rap game corrupted everything

But this is for the hater, what's up Bobby Ray? So can I get a wish To end the politics And get back to the music That started this shit?
This is for those who don't like me, what's up Bobby Ray? Can I make a wish to end the politics and re-focus on the music that started everything?

I could really use a wish right now (oh, oh-oh oh) I, I, I could really use a wish right now Like, like, like shootin' stars (oh, oh oh) I, I, I could really use a wish right now A wish, a wish right now (A wish right now)
I need a wish right now, like a shooting star, urgently and immediately
