(Is it a bird or just a plane? Is it a bird or plane?

Is it a bird or just a plane? Is it a bird or plane?)

[Verse 1]

What happened to the boy I knew?

He promised me his love was true

Supposed to be a man but his little planet fell through

The one who used to tell me jokes

Was popular with all my folks

Had everybody fooled 'cause he was so cool

Now it's up in smoke

What happened to my childhood dream?

Your language, I no longer speak

How come you never talk to me and

My telephone never rings

[Pre-Chorus]

I wish I'd known that you would mean

To let me go, I was oblivious

You were up on a pedestal

And I could not reel you in

[Chorus]

But you fell short 'cause you needed lungs to breathe

And you can't fly, look with eyes like laser beams

And I was blind for wanting you to rescue me

But you work hard in the clouds

And I was left on the ground

(Is it a bird or just a plane? Is it a bird or plane?

Is it a bird or just a plane? Is it a bird or plane?)

[Verse 2]

What happened to the boy I knew?

The one I thought had hung the moon

Supposed he was a man but one stroke of

His hand and I'm painted blue

What happened to the childhood dream?

Your language, I no longer speak

How come you never talk to me?

And my telephone never rings

[Pre-Chorus]

I wish I'd known that you would mean

To let me go

I was oblivious

You were up on a pedestal

And I could not reel you in

[Chorus]

But you fell short

'Cause you needed lungs to breathe

And you can't fly, look with eyes like laser beams

And I was blind for wanting you to rescue me

But you were caught in the clouds

Oh, you fell short

'Cause you needed lungs to breathe

And you can't fly, look with eyes like laser beams

And I was blind for wanting you to rescue me

But you were caught in the clouds

[Bridge]

You can't read the thoughts

That form inside my head

And you aren't strong enough

To save my soul from dead

Then you can't keep my heart

From being ripped to shreds

I was wrong to alter reality

I made you some

Superman you couldn't be

All this time, oh, I truly did believe

That you got caught in the clouds

[Pre-Chorus]

I wish you'd known that I would mean

To fall in love

Were you oblivious?

You were high in the atmosphere

I had disappeared below

[Chorus]

But you fell short

'Cause you needed lungs to breathe

And you can't fly, look with eyes like laser beams

And I was blind for wanting you to rescue me

But you were caught in the clouds

Oh, you fell short

'Cause you needed lungs to breathe

And you can't fly, look with eyes like laser beams

And I was blind for wanting you to rescue me

But you were caugheet in the clouds, oh

[Outro]

You got caught in the clouds, oh

And I don't know myself now, no

(Is it a bird or just a plane? Is it a bird or a plane?

Is it a bird or just a plane? Is it a bird or a plane?)
