Iran Air - Hiatus, Shura

Underneath a veil of night

Underneath a veil of night and

Woken by a storm

Listening to crowds that howl and fight

Governments will fall

Leaving in a trail of light

Leaving in a trail of light and

Flying Iran Air

Looking down on every street in sight

Every park and square

From the only world I’ve known

I can’t stay, I can’t stay

Take me to another place

Far away, far away

Underneath a London sky

Underneath a London sky that’s

Lower by the day

Working someone else’s nine-to-five

For someone else’s pay

Living for a secret sign

Living for a secret sign and

Dreaming Iran Air

Looking up at every passing flight

Every one a prayer
