Born in mid-america, a shiny little pearl
Passed around with tenderness and sent out to the world
Before the age of one
Fate had moved me on
To a brand new loving home beneath the sun
Bombs away in shades of grey
Glory days, bombs away
Crack the bomb-bay doors
Judgement never looked so small
Paradise is yours
Heaven catch me when i fall
Cradled up in safety for 30 days at sea
Placed into the careful hands awaiting there for me
Everybody smiles
- every woman, man and child
I guess i'm gonna be here for a while
Bombs away in shades of grey
Glory days, bombs away
Crack the bomb-bay doors
Judgement never looked so small
Paradise is yours
Heaven catch me when i fall
The holiday is over, guess i wasn't meant to stay
They put me on an aeroplane back to the u.s.a.
This can't be the plan
God has had for man
Sems this flight was never meant to land
Bombs away in shades of grey
Glory days, bombs away
Crack the bomb-bay doors
Judgement never looked so small
Paradise is yours
Heaven catch me when i fall
