Mother Mary stands on the dashboard of his 60's Chevrolet / Bobbing up and down to the rhythm the engine makes / Plastic buddha hangs from the silver keychain resting by his knee / As both sit idle wildly waiting to be set free / Chorus / I want to know what it feels like to set flight / I want to know what it feels like to hold something tight / I want to know if at the end of the tunnel there is light / Cause that is where I'm going / zero to sixty in under seven seconds time / he bragged he did it once where south state road turns into a straight line / it was the grip of the wheel, the rush of speed and the way that that warm wind blew / when his engine ran the way that it was meant to / Chorus / I want to know what it feels like to set flight / I want to know what it feels like to hold something tight / I want to know if at the end of the tunnel there is light / cause that is where I'm going / no one knew where he went early that November night / when he left the house everything seemed to be alright / they say you can hear every time an angel earns wings to fly / and that night you could hear every angel cry / Chorus / I want to know if I will be missed when I set flight / I want to know what it feels like to hold me tight / I want to know if at the end of the tunnel there is light / so that is where I'm going
