Taking a ride to another climb
Knees in my back 'cause we're flying high
Did I give it all?
I guess I gave it all

Seeing the mountains through the fog
Watching a film with a talking dog
'Cause if I fall
Then I guess I fall

[Repeat: x4]
Hawaiian air

Leaving the world down beneath the clouds
Hawaiian notes, don't need no pounds
Did I give them all?
Oh, did I give them all?

Ache in my leg from a broken seat
Skipping the meal for a G&T
'Cause if I fall
I'm beggin' not to fall

[Repeat: x4]
Hawaiian air

Touchin' down
Hit the ground
I'm breathin' new air
Gonna take this all in
Gonna take this all in

As we land, you pinch my hand
I'm still here
Gonna take this all in
Gonna take this all in

Up in the sky on a lunar bound
Steel guitar and the melly sound
Did I give it all?
I guess I gave it all

Feeling the shapes keeps me reticent
Stuck in my seat from the turbulence
And if I fall
Then I fall

Breaking open skies of green earths
Deserts,
In our eyes we're falling
Our hearts in our ?

Touchin' down
Hit the ground
I'm breatin' new air
Gonna take this all in
Gonna take this all in

As we land, you pinch my hand
I'm still here
Gonna take this all in
Gonna take this all in

As the wheels, hit the ground
I'm breathing Hawaiian air
Gonna take this all in
Gonna take this all in

As the heat fills my lungs
I'm breathing Hawaiian air
Gonna take this all in
Gonna take this all in

[Repeat: x4]
Hawaiian air

    I think that in the first line it would be "clime" not "climb".

    Great song. Among my favourites on Pala.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
