Pay the taxi driver don't need help with any bags As I cruise between the rollers and the tourists with their trappings Wands flash before me beeping as they ask About the contents of my pockets did I empty them of trash Now I'm caught between the gates seeing places I could go But every one of them feels empty Cause I'm going there alone leaving you in foggy London Where the mist can hide your tears As fluorescent airport lighting illuminates just how I feel Now the boarding call is sounding in a monotone refrain So I show them my credentials down the aisle in a haze Row 23 beside the window and a vacant middle seat Extra room I'd normally welcome is just the place you ought to be Taxi and a take off then the miracle of flight Slicing upwards through the atmosphere then quickly banking right Crane my neck for one last look For the clouds obscure my sight Every second floating farther like an island lost in time The roar of the engines rippling cross the sky Searching for horizons in the black and blue of night 30, 000 ft of darkness Stretches out below Down to the unseen cresting oceans I feel every swell and roll Like the contrails brief decay Like a breeze that clears the air Like your touch that lightly glances sending static through my hair It is only temporary It is only in my mind It's packed up with my memories and the slow burn of desire
