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
