Airplane

I watch the rain fall on the window
I concentrate as the hours roll by
I miss the way life was so simple
I complicate as I fall in to

Another confession, another transgression, another ticket home
Silent hesitation, her train's at the station, I wish that I could go

But all that I know is the blue horizon
And all that I know is that my feet can't touch the ground
And all that I know is when the silver moon starts shining
Is that I'm a couple hours, a hundred miles and homebound
I'm homebound

We separate, holding each other
Cold winter came, I talked to your mother
Life has a way of making you wonder
If it's in the plan to be so far from each other

And I'll keep on waiting, and you'll keep on saying It's only for a month
I'm boarding, you're praying I'd rather be staying, it's not long enough

Now all that I know is the blue horizon
And all that I know is that my feet can't touch the ground
And all that I know is when the silver moon starts shining
Is that I'm a couple hours, a hundred miles and homebound

And I thought I could hold my breath as the sun was rising, and
A little time is not worth crying about
The curve in the world was dying
As the lights came in and I was London bound

And now I'm back to living this little life
And it's a single dial for you, I'll survive
And you settle into being alone at night
It's fine

For all that I know to be the blue horizon
And all that I know when my feet can't touch the ground
Is I'm hoping that one day maybe you'll see that silver moon shining
As we're a couple hours, a hundred miles, and homebound
