I was surrounded
By the sound
Of jet aircraft
Out on manœuvres
Also above
A flight
From Manchester
To Istanbul
Further down the drain
In the skies far distance
A longer range aeroplane
On its way to Montreal
Unfortunately
When I reached the road
I had to dodge the cars and the wagons
For there were no pavements
What does it matter
When and where mistakes were made
Or even if good decisions were taken
All that is important is the here and now
