Takeoffs And Landings

On this coldest of January nights

We drive out past the runway and watch the planes go flying by

The runway lights are the deepest blue like the colors of your eyes

So close them tight and kiss me one last time



If you could go anywhere right now

Where would you go?

And would you miss me when you get there?

No place that I would rather be

Please don't let me go falling from the sky

The "fasten seatbelt" sign just needs to go out

If only you could be right here by my side

Home wouldn't seem so far from here



Passport, customs, carry on, remember

To shut off all of your electronic devices

Fell asleep on Tuesday woke up Monday afternoon

I slept right through your International Date Line



If you could go anywhere right now

Where would you go?

And would you miss me when you get there?

No place that I would rather be

Please don't let me go falling from the sky

The "fasten seatbelt" sign just needs to go out

If only you could be right here by my side

Home wouldn't seem so far from here



Please don't let me go falling from the sky

The "fasten seatbelt" sign just needs to go out

If only you could be right here by my side

Home wouldn't seem so far from here
