Last flight out
Cabin dim and humming
Plastic cup of water
That I’m not touching
Seatbelt sign glowing
Clouds blur under wing
Everyone’s breathing easy
I just trace your name on the tray
Everybody’s sleeping on this last flight out
But I’m wide awake
Thinking of you now
Thirty thousand feet and I’m still tied down
To your side of the bed
To your side of town
Everybody’s dreaming on this last flight out
I just see your face every time I look down
Reading light flickers
Page won’t hold a word
You’re tucked in somewhere
In an older T-shirt
I rehearse the moment
Key in your front door
Will you run to meet me
Or just lean on the frame and smile
Everybody’s sleeping on this last flight out
But I’m wide awake
Thinking of you now
Thirty thousand feet and I’m still tied down
To your side of the bed
To your side of town
Everybody’s dreaming on this last flight out
I just see your face every time I look down
If this plane turned back
I’d still be in the air
Cause every mile I travel
Just circles you
Circles you there (oh)
Everybody’s sleeping on this last flight out
But I’m wide awake
Thinking of you now
Thirty thousand feet and I’m still tied down
To your side of the bed
To your side of town
Everybody’s dreaming on this last flight out
I just hold my breath till the wheels hit ground
