i was up in the air your flight attendant
you sitting there looking so splendid
in final decent, the passengers take their seats
and i fell for you then and i never landed
you're heaven sent, isn't it romantic
i fell for you from 40,000ft
i was down in the dumps feeling so hopeless
taking my lumps living moment to moment
and in my despair, i thought that i was beat
but you lifted me up and i never landed
you're heaven sent, isn't it romantic
i fell for you from 40,000ft
and over the years we've flown together
through laughter and tears and in-climate weather
i have something to ask you but first let me get on one knee
oh i've fallen for you and i've never landed
you're heaven sent, isn't it romantic
marry me dear, be my bride to be
i fell for you from 40,000ft

Your Good Luck Penny

i couldn't help but feel that i failed ya
i couldn't make it out to australia
and i'm your good luck penny i'm the one that always turns up
you introduced me to my husband
you married an aussie in london
and you're randomly living with the father of the man that i love
and you are my oldest friend
our lives forever ever interwoven
and i'm your penny
the one who turns up
some people they aren't worth your time
some people they nickel and dime
some friends make you happy make you feel like a million bucks
but even if you're out of your collar
you can bet your bottom dollar
i'll be your good luck penny
i'll be the one who always turns up
and you are my oldest friend
our lives forever ever interwoven
and i'm your penny
the one who turns up
except on your wedding day
hillary what can i say?
except here's to you and to dave
and as kylie minogue would say
put your hands up if you feel love
put your hands up
and here's to two beautiful boys
to charlie and leo all joined
in one beautiful family
oh, you look so in love
and you are my oldest friend
our lives forever ever interwoven
and i'm your penny
i'm your penny
i'm your penny
i'm your penny
i'm your penny
the one who turns up

i know a programmer, he works in native search
i know a publisher, she works with tiny books
and he just proposed to her because they're so in love
but that's not what they are they're also other things
like they're poets and my dear old friends
and how can you ever know a friend, but by the ones they choose to love
and how can you ever know a friend, but by the one they choose to love

thank you for lending us the floor of your house

ooo, what'd we do without you
thank you for opening your hearts

ooo, what'd we do without you
what would we do with out you
what'd we do with out you
what'd we do with out you

for i love you my friend
and i will 'till the end

and roll off the bed

like the ickiest thump (thump thump thump)
you're my snuggliest chum (chum chum chum)
com sit on my knee
oh meow lalala
oh meow lalala

and a human that's me

oh meow lalala
oh meow lalala

rest those baby eyes
with a kiss like butterflies
i'll be here when you rise
go on and rest those baby eyes
rest your baby nose
cute as button holes
i'll stay here and hold you close
go on and rest your baby nose
and even baby giles
so full of baby smiles
you have to rest a while
it's all right baby
it's all right baby
i'll bless those heavy eyes
with a kiss of butterflies
and be here when you rise
go ahead and rest those baby eyes

audrey leah joy is beautiful
and she's so intelligent
she's our wondergirl
all sweetness and peppermint
she's outside it's jackie and her on the slide binky in tow
it's impossible to be unhappy when she's so happy and she is the happiest sassiest wondergirl i'll ever know
audrey leah joy is curious
her eyes the shade of the sea
and she's gorgeous
and a contradiction beneath
she's outside it's jackie and her on the slide binky in tow
it's impossible to be unhappy when she's so happy and she is the happiest sassiest wondergirl i'll ever know

jackie moon you are the wildest child
next to you the terrible twos seem mild
yes they do jackie moon
jackie moon you are made of quickness
and vroom is the sound of your infant engines
ooo, jackie moon
little jackie moon he always tries to raise the roof
such a brave little man, such a villainous papoose
jackie moon did your mop of brown hair just consume
the two eyeballs if found there
peekaboo jackie moon

there's bass sleeping in it's case
there's an amp in the boot
he's driven someplace far away
and he's choosing his roof
he switches on the sat nav prompts him navigate to
home home home home he's going home to you
there's a story that's not a fable
it's a story that's true
a christmas card on the kitchen table
he wrote it with you
it's a story it's not a fable
the journey's the proof
the journey home home home home
you made a home
he made his home with you
he switches on the sat nav prompts him navigate to
home home home home he's going home to you

teenage classmates
learning to speak enfrances
he's so smitten that he can't concentrate
the first date they're shipmates
then sailing at night they stargaze
did she know even then that someday he'd say
i've been sailing my whole life with you
blair with all that we've been through
we're still sailing through our lives it's true
i've been sailing my whole life with you
they marry, they sparely furnish the apartment where they
make a book case with the wood that they stain
a family movie made when their son was newly born
watching it later when he's grown, with his own on the way
i've been sailing my whole life with you
blair with all that we've been through
we're still sailing through our lives it's true
i've been sailing my whole life with you
we're still sailing
we're still sailing
we're still sailing
we're still sailing
i've been sailing my whole life with you
blair with all that we've been through
i've been sailing my whole life with you

i vow to sing aloud should you require a song
and i vow to step out should you need to be alone
for together we do form a team in matrimony
and i vow to knuckle down should our luck grow thin
and i vow to make a new vow each year be beginners again
for together we do form this team and from this day forward we're family
so i give thee my fidelity, my honest and trust
and i promise kindness, forgiveness and love
until we do part, and you have died, or maybe i go first
