מטוס כחול
Idan Rafael Haviv Lyrics

The song "מטוס כחול" (Blue Plane) by Idan Rafael Haviv is about escaping reality and going on a journey with a loved one. The opening verse describes choosing a blue plane and taking only the essentials - clothes and what's in their hearts. The singer then describes wanting to write about love, children, and family, and how a person wants more than their fantasies. They travel together, seeking to give thanks for what they have, but also acknowledging that time passes and friendships fade. The chorus repeats the opening verse, emphasizing the importance of love and family over material possessions.

In the second verse, the singer expresses their desire to escape reality, possibly to avoid the pressures of society, and the criticism of being single. They may feel that there are good reasons to remain single, and they need to focus on themselves. The song ends with the couple returning to their apartment and acknowledging that they could keep traveling to seek what they are missing, or they could appreciate the good things they have, like each other. The singer is grateful for the kind word they receive, and they see a falling star, symbolizing that sometimes wishes do come true.

Overall, the song is a sentimental tune on the importance of focusing on the people we love over materialistic achievements. The journey they go on doesn't need to be a worldwide trip; it could be a simple plane ride that carries symbolic meaning.
