Local Natives - Airplanes Lyrics
The desk where you sit inside of a
frame made of, made of, of wood
I keep those chopsticks you had from when
you taught abroad, taught abroad, in Japan
I call
I want you back, back, back
You back
I did not know you as well
as my father, father knew you
Every question you took the
time to sit and look it up,
look it up in the encyclopedia
So much I call
I want you back, back, back
You back
I love it all
So much I call
I want you back, back, back
You back
Da da daaa ay
It sounds like we
would have had a great deal to say, to say
to each other
I bet when I leave
my body for the sky the wait,
the wait will be worth it
I love it all
So much I call
I want you back, back, back
You back
I love it all
So much I call
I want you back, back, back
You back

Local Natives Airplanes Comments
I can't take the beginning seriously
I love the start it seems out of place with the "oooohhhhh" bit it's funny as fuck tho
Not sure of the band dynamic but this is my favourite song, the voice of the main guy is different and really genuine, not to say it there. Other songs are not as good jus a thought
Songs so underrated check out Daring me by the lost project it’s a blue thumbnail I promise you won’t be disappointed
I've loved this band for a while now, heard the song in an old episode of Chuck and had to come listen :)
Reminds me of Bread. Anyone?
Damn I miss my grandparents
You’re a fucking saint for uploading this
2019 😍 ♥
LOL I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!! PORTUGAL THE MAN IS THE BEST THO
Leland Wong legit
Portugal The Man is nowhere near the best. There are better singers/artists/musicians both in the present and the past that are and were better. Hell, Local Natives were better..lol
It's insane how ODESZA sampled this into "I Want You"
3:30 odesza iplayyoulisten
I always cry when I hear this song because I lost my grandpa
1:06 Odesza- I want you
Love this group.
Wow... this is... really good. In actuality I have the song "Want you Back" by... I can't remember her name. It's a garbage song that rips off the chorus of this song hardcore. I only know this because of a comment I saw watching old Todd in the Shadows (pop music critic) videos. I guess it worked out in the end.
This band is milktoast
I absolutely love this song
No lyrics??
In the description box.
I love local natives
I WANT YOU BAAAAAA! I always think of a sheep. Every time.
lol. That's gonna be stuck in my mind when I hear this song
same here my mom mom and pop pop died recently I want them back
My grandfather just died and it is a nice thing to be able to turn to this song and share the emotions of this man.
I'm sorry for your loss.
I'm glad you have something to hold onto and something that comforts you
un moment de liberté...je vol😊😊😊😊
Slowly recovering all the songs I lost when Grooveshark went down.
CONTACTED tool EULOGIES
I understand it was inspired by one of the band members grandfather's but music is made from emotions so if people can relate to that emotion even though their situation might be different stfu and let them be in their feelings!
The chorus turns me to an emotional wreck every time, right in da feels
"Right in da feels" love it
dude this is my psychologists brother. this is amazing.
Psychologist aka thief.
how does psychologist equate to thief??
Hearing that this song is about one of the band members grandfather who he never got to meet makes me sad because I never met my grandfather before I was born. One day.
CHUCK SEASON 2 EP 15
This song stabbed me right in the heart :(
I think that LN's drony, atonal harmonies are having a major impact on today's music. Seems that way to me, anyways...
Example?
Seems like several commercials I have heard lately seem to have a LN vibe to them. Will keep an ear out for which ones exactly.
Susie Torres Nah the commercials bite off of Beach House.
heard this on Modest Mouse itunesradio... so awesome
Such a beautiful song.
Me encanta ! Un grupo excelente ! ♥
Definitely my favorite of this album.. "I want you back back back"
@Jennifer prado YAAASSSSS
I've been a fan of this band for a long time. I just had my heart broken and now I'm only beginning to understand this somber song :'-(
This song is actually about his dead grandpa. It does sound like a romantic thing, though.
Saw them in Philly in September. This song has just stuck in my head ever since and I can still picture the drums. tap tap tap tap tap! lol
saw them live last night, crowd went crazy when this came on!
I want you back back back
I want you back back back
i luv these guys
Glad i found this T.T
No prob. God bless
Thanks for making these videos! I love Local Natives!
spent an hour looking for this song, thank jesus for google
These guys are really good I listen the alot. Love listing to them while i am on RTD in Denver
Favourite song!!!
Yeah, does Local Natives sound so good? hahaha I love it.
addictive
They play this song at my job :( It is annoying but so darn catchy
That's cool and good choice too. Thanks for the comment And God bless you!
My friend is performing this song :)
I'm so glad she chose this :D
It's amazing :)
Getting some 'revision' in before Green Man, sounding good!
This song still sounds like every indie song out there. Honest opinion.
Okay seriously, I want you guys to be open minded and telling us how you feel about music but having arguments and being tools to each other just isn't right.
Please be positive and kind to each other and don't fight.
*********************
if you like local natives go check them out ACOUSTIC on one of the NPR tiny desk concerts. It will knock your socks off
Drummer is so sick
The very beginning is kind of weird, but I love this song. It's beautiful.
You don't realise how lucky you are! ;P x
Ah man, that's just awesome! Thanks for commenting and God bless you!
Once I ate Village Inn with the Local Natives after a show. Favourite bragging rights.
I really just love this song so much. Idegaf
did i not just say i listen to local natives too they're all cool
So true. But there's no need to carry on this polemic.
lol no! she wasn't hating on socomnick, I'm sure, but I've always been bad at communication, so... maybe 'slamming other people' would be more understandable? God bless you too honey boo boo
I wouldn't go so far as to say she was hating on 'Socomnick'. I think she was simply trying to defend the band because Local Natives truly does make beautiful and marvelous music/lyrics. But you are right about not judging/hating someone because of the music they like. I personally hate One Direction and Justin Bieber. I think their music sucks lol but I really don't care if you listen to them or not and I hope you don't dislike me for listening to Local Natives. It's all music. God bless you!
Local Natives FTW! :D <3
It's my pleasure! Thanks for the comment and God bless you!
I since sarcasm in your comment lol. But I totally agree with you.
I see, I'll be praying for you. God bless.
Why? if you don't mind me asking.
this song makes me want to cry
love love love
Fixed. Thanks for telling me and God bless you!
You missed the line "to each other" after "to say" in your lyrics.
@omgwtfwthlol Yeah lol.
Oh wait....you did...wait at the bottom where youtube can't see lol
I think you posted before but got them taken down; I suggest making a disclaimer about how you don't own the song.
@zeppelin654321 Oh and merry Christmas!
@zeppelin654321 Oh thank you and it's my pleasure! They are such a great band and I just had to share the great music they make. Thanks for commenting and God bless you!
