Lyrics

You should see the wonder in his eyes He stands by the fence, an airport spy Sometimes up on his tippy-toes Tryin' to take it all in I'm sure tomorrow he will be back again He'll be a natural flyer Knows every aircraft by name Instead of his homework, he is up in his room drawing planes I think he knows, he's a little boy But he carries a man-size dream He longs for the day and his chance in a flying machine Sweet dreams, as mom and daddy say He climbs into bed They whisper "good night" His flashlight is new He's on chapter two of Yeager Under the covers He reads tonight "A stall is created by exceeding the critical angle of attack. When this occurs, the smooth flow of air over the wing is lost, drag increases, and lift is depleted" After school he's out there, every day Dreaming about his future, while the other kids play He knows what he wants to be His mind is set so strong He knows in his heart, the sky is where he belongs Sweet dreams, as mom and daddy say He climbs into bed They turn off the light His flashlight is new He's on chapter two of Yeager Under the covers He dreams tonight "Hi son, what's your name? Matthew Matthew! I see you out here all the time and, hey, I'm going flying tomorrow, would you like to come along? You mean it Mister? You bet! Hey, why don't you check with your folks, make sure it's okay, and I'll see you out here tomorrow, okay? Awesome!" (You should see the wonder) In his eyes (You should see the wonder) (You should see the wonder) In his eyes (You should see the wonder) (You should see the wonder) You should see the wonder, that airport spy (You should see the wonder)
