Airplanes - B.o.B featuring Hayley Williams (lyrics) Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shootin\u0027 stars I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shootin\u0027 stars I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now Yeah, I could use a dream or a genie or a wish To go back to a place much simpler than this \u0027Cause after all the partyin\u0027 and smashin\u0027 and crashin\u0027 And all the glitz and glam and the fashion And all the pandemonium and all the madness There comes a time where you fade to the blackness And when you\u0027re starin\u0027 at the phone in your lap And you hopin\u0027 but them people never call you back But that\u0027s just how the story unfolds You get another hand soon after you fold And when your plans unravel in the sand What would you wish for, if you had one chance? So airplane, airplane sorry I\u0027m late I\u0027m on my way so don\u0027t close that gate If I don\u0027t make that, then I\u0027ll switch my flight And I\u0027ll be right back at it by the end of the night Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shootin\u0027 stars I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shootin\u0027 stars I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now Yeah, yeah, somebody take me back to the days Before this was a job, before I got paid Before it ever mattered what I had in my bank Yeah, back when I was tryna get a tip at Subway And back then I was rappin\u0027 for the hell of it But nowadays we rappin\u0027 to stay relevant I\u0027m guessin\u0027 that if we can make some wishes out of airplanes Then maybe, oh maybe, I\u0027ll go back to the days Before the politics that we call the rap game And back when ain\u0027t nobody listened to my mixtape And back before I tried to cover up my slang But this is for Decatur, what\u0027s up Bobby Ray? So can I get a wish to end the politics? And get back to the music that started this shit So here I stand and then again I say I\u0027m hoping we can make some wishes out of airplanes Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shootin\u0027 stars I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shootin\u0027 stars I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now I could really use a wish right now I, I, I could really use a wish right now Like, like, like shootin\u0027 stars I, I, I could, I could really use a wish right now A wish, a wish right now
