Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Daniel is traveling tonight on a plane
I can see the red taillights heading for Spain
Oh, and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God, it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
[Verse 2]
They say Spain is pretty, though I've never been
Well, Daniel says it's the best place that he's ever seen
Oh, and he should know, he's been there enough
Lord, I miss Daniel, oh, I miss him so much
[Verse 3]
Oh, Daniel my brother, you are older than me
Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won't heal?
Your eyes have died, but you see more than I
Daniel, you're a star in the face of the sky
[Verse 4]
Oh, Daniel my brother, you are older than me
Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won't heal?
Your eyes have died, but you see more than I
Daniel, you're a star in the face of they sky
[Verse 5]
Daniel is traveling tonight on a plane
I can see the red taillights heading for Spain
Oh, and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God, it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
[Verse 6]
God, it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
