Daniel is traveling tonight on a plane.

God, it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes.

 

They say Spain is pretty though I've never been.

Well, Daniel says it's the best place he's ever seen.

Oh, and he should know he's been there enough.

Lord I miss Daniel, oh, I miss him so much.

Oh, Daniel, my brother, you are older than me.

Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won't heal?

               Am                          F

Your eyes have died, but you see more than I

Daniel you're a star in the face of the sky

 

Daniel is traveling tonight on a plane.

I can see the red taillights heading for Spain

Oh, and I can see Daniel waving goodbye.

God, it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes.
