lyrics

It’s been a hard time for me,
It’s been a hard time for you, I know.
12 27.
You want a reason for this pain.
9 5 0 9.
You’ve earned a pause now.
I think a life of excess is best, forget about them.
Good things will come to those who wait.
0 2 0 9.

Now everybody is skydiving,
And I’m still clinging to the plane.
I really want to try.

But then you bring a little sunshine, make it last a lifetime.
(All ships go down.)
If we take a trip to heaven, make it last forever.
(All ships go down.)
If you make me think you’re worried, living in a hurry.
(All ships go down.)
I will make you think you’re better before the day you met her.
(All ships go down.)

Make mine a double.
I’ll meet you at the bar, alright?
100,000.
Make mine a double.
I’ll meet you in the car.
2 4 0 9.

‘Cause everybody is skydiving,
And I’m still clinging to the plane.
And if I jump I’ll die.

But then you bring a little sunshine…

I will remember you.
Will I remember you?

Everybody is skydiving,
And I’m still clinging to the plane.
And now I’ve waited too long for it.
I really thought I’d fly.

about

Colonel Dax Wrexham, UK

Colonel Dax is an alternative rock/multimedia project based around the songwriting of Tom Hughes (let's drop the 3rd-person act. It's me writing this).

I champion the "homemade" approach, and therefore all Dax output is entirely self-produced.

The Dax live band are renowned for tight, fun and at times "explosive" sets.
