It was a perfect day for planes in the sky
I saw rather stripes and silver
Shining until it blew a star

I saw the smoke and searched for
Down by the river where I was
I know this won't last too long

Empty moon, cloudless sky
I'm so glad you came midday
Laughing so loud that you can't hear a sound

[Chorus]

Rockets And Jets
Rockets And Jets

Put the knife on the raft now
I'll have your heart after
I know this won't last too long

I'll have a day, a long, long time
And the planes, they go up, they go down
And I can't hear your words because you're talking too loud

[Chorus]
