The Aeroplane Flies High (Turns Left, Looks Right)

LyricsInformation
I really don't wanna look stupid when I'm sleeping
I never really liked sunny days
the black wings just reach out to me over a distance
and I can feel the wind from the wings
I see the clouds
and I feel the ocean beneath my feet, and I'm home again
it requires an ability to judge distance
the aeroplane flies high, turns left, looks right

love is a sentimental heart
life is a sentimental way
spy the fragile heart so cursed
as he walks across this earth

I'm disconnected by your smile
disconnect a million miles
and what you promised me
I hope will set you free
I'm disconnected by your smile

if I knew where I was going I would already be there (laugh)
I wish I had more time
judicious, beautiful, augmented, whatever
I've always been afraid to die, but I think now I'm more afraid to live

and all I gave to you is lost
and all you took from me is lost
black wings carry me so high
up to meet you in the sky

I'm disconnected by your smile
disconnect a million miles
and what you promised me
I hope will set you free
I'm disconnected by your smile

disconnected by your smile
disconnect a million miles
and what you promised me
I hope will set you free
I'm disconnected by your smile

wishing you were real to me
wishing I could make believe
I'll take my secrets to the grave
safely held beneath the waves
always knew I couldn't save
always knew I couldn't save you

and in the heart I know you're there
and in the heart I know you care
and in my heart I know you're gone 		Written by William Corgan

Billy Corgan: (from Guitar World)

    "A brief snippet of this tune, which was originally entitled [Disconnected] is found in the "Pastichio Medley." This is a Mellon Collie riff that I could never seem to find a change for. [Producer] Flood didn't like this one much ("too heavy metal"-a common complaint), and I never finished it until right before it was recorded. Essentially a new song with an old riff, with spoken word bits courtesy of my friends. The solo, funnily enough, was quickly thrown down because I had to go to a funeral. It was supposed to be a reference for where to pick up when I came back. But when I returned, I was surprised by how much I liked it."

Billy Corgan: (Whfs Interview 1996)

    "There is one song on there called 'disconnected' which has a different title, but it will come out as a B-side..probably on the next single."
