Call Me When You Land

Let go of your hand so you could walk on your own

Let go the handlebars so you could ride on and on

Watching you glide through that sunlight

Feels like yesterday

Have to reel in the years now so you can find your own way

Took my hands off the wheel so you could drive

Surrender the fears I thought would keep you alive

Watching you walk down that tunnel

I feel a castaway

Have to hold my tears now so you can fly away

Call you when I land

Is what you said to me

I’ll be waiting here, baby

Building our castles in the sand

I’ve been missin’ you lately

Call me when you land

As you take the sky today my heart is in your hands

As a father learns a child is the father to the man

Watching you make your own way

I feel the history

Of all the things I missed and couldn’t see

Now I see

Call you when I land

Is what you said to me

I’ll be waiting here, baby

Building our castles in the sand

I’ve been missin’ you lately

Call me when you land

Hold my tongue, let you fall

Take your steps away from me

Ah, the mystery

Have to stop myself so you can be, you can be
