Dragonfly in the pouring rain Cast a shadow on halcyon days Chasing rainbows, running the storm Unaware that your wings would be torn Sometimes I think I'm going nowhere at all Stuck in the shelter with my back to the wall Then I remember how it felt to come down So I'm taking my time and I'm not going out Until it's safe to fly I could be waiting 'til the summer sky But I'm standing by Until I'm cleared to go I won't be shaken by the undertow I'm under your wing this time And I know there's a storm outside So I'll stay 'til I know it's safe Safe to fly Aeronaut in a heavy cloud Staying up with the radio down Chasing rainbows you'd rather forget Unaware of the trouble ahead Sometimes I think I'm learning nothing at all Once I've recovered I just stumble and fall 'Til I've discovered what the journey's about I'm preparing for flight, and I'll weather it out Until it's safe to fly I could be waiting 'til the summer sky But I'm standing by Until I'm cleared to go I won't be shaken by the undertow I'm biding my time Sometimes I think I'm going nowhere at all Stuck in the shelter with my back to the wall Then I remember how it felt to come down So I'm taking my time and I'm not going out Until it's safe to fly I could be waiting 'til the summer sky But I'm standing by Until I'm cleared to go I won't be shaken by the undertow I'm under your wing this time And I know there's a storm outside So I'll stay 'til I know it's safe Safe to fly
