David Graff – Supposed To Fly

All songs written by David Graff (SOCAN)

Vapour Trail – 5:11

We cast no shadow, we’ve left no mark

The only evidence is this stain on my heart

The chance alignment of our live has come and past

We thought our love was strong, that it would never fail

But now it’s fading like a vapour trail

They’ll build no monument to this love that we knew

Still in my memory there’s a small place for you

You’ll never age in my mind’s eye as I grow old

We were two ships at sea, but now we’re under sail

And we are fading like a vapour trail

How did we ever fly so high without a crash?

The earth’s a jealous mother now she’s calling us back

Me and my confidence, we’d never slip

Something like no regrets was the phrase on my lips

Let’s say goodbye now baby, tonight, tonight, tonight

Cause if we take a look are where we are right now

We’ll see that we are far beyond the pale

We burned a lot of fuel, we flew across the sky

 But now we’re fading like a vapour trail

We burned a lot of fuel, we flew across the sky

 But now we’re fading like a vapour trail
