home and dry

Gerry Rafferty

This silver bird takes me ââ?¬Ë?cross the sky
Just one more hour and Iââ?¬â?¢ll be home and dry
ââ?¬Ë?Cross the ocean, way above the clouds I come stealinââ?¬â?¢.

Feelinââ?¬â?¢ tired, but I feel good
Cause I did everything I said I would
I think of you, and I know how youââ?¬â?¢ll be feelinââ?¬â?¢.

I gotta see you, I gotta be with you
Weââ?¬â?¢ll make it better now in every way
Itââ?¬â?¢s gotta be you, itââ?¬â?¢s gotta be you
Yes from now on Iââ?¬â?¢ll tell you everyday.

Way up here above this timeless sea
I realize just what it is you mean to me
You give me somethinââ?¬â?¢ when I thought that everything we had was dyinââ?¬â?¢.

I need a reason just to make me carry on
Well I know better now, I know where I belong
I canââ?¬â?¢t imagine how I ever let myself just give up tryinââ?¬â?¢.

I gotta see you, I gotta be with you
Weââ?¬â?¢ll make it better now in every way
Itââ?¬â?¢s gotta be you, itââ?¬â?¢s gotta be you
Yes from now on Iââ?¬â?¢ll tell you everyday.

Oooooh, yes home and dry.

Ainââ?¬â?¢t nothinââ?¬â?¢ up here gonna slow me down
You know I never ever take the long way ââ?¬Ë?round
I think of you, cause I know how youââ?¬â?¢ll be feelinââ?¬â?¢.

This silver bird takes me ââ?¬Ë?cross the sky
Just one more hour and Iââ?¬â?¢ll be home and dry
ââ?¬Ë?Cross the ocean, way above the clouds I come stealinââ?¬â?¢.

I gotta see you, I gotta be with you
Weââ?¬â?¢ll make it better now in every way
Itââ?¬â?¢s gotta be you, itââ?¬â?¢s gotta be you
Yes from now on Iââ?¬â?¢ll tell you everyday.

Oooooh, yes home and dry.
