Discover the story of the song > Tonight We Fly – The Divine Comedy

The song talks about a person who wants to fly and escape from the world below. They wonder why happiness is so hard to find and fly over different types of people such as doctors, teachers, and writers. They fly over mountains, beaches, and friends they've known, and those they have yet to meet. Finally, they question if they will feel disappointed if they don't go to heaven and remind themselves that this life is the best they've ever had.
