| Lyrics: | Standing in that silent hall
Waiting for that final call
Says he doesn't love me
anymore
With shakin' hands, I pack a bag
Trembling voice, I call a cab
Slowly I start
walkin' through the door
Cab arrives, he blows his horn
I stumble out in the early
morn'
Tell him of the place I've got to go
We hit a hundred signal lights
Some
Peterbuilts in a traffic fight
Gettin' to these doors has been so slow
L.A.
International Air-airport, where the big jet engines roar
L.A. International Air-airport, I
won't see him anymore
Stewardess in a mini-skirt
Hippie in a leather shirt
Starlet
on her way to Naples, Rome
While I'm wonderin' where it's at
I see a Paris
diplomat
College kids tryin' to get back home
Baggage car goes quickly by
I see my
case and I start to cry
Stumble to the lounge to be alone
And while I'm tryin' to get some
rest
I bite my lips and try my best
To fight the pain that's makin' me leave
ho-ome
L.A. International Air-airport, where the big jet engines roar
L.A.
International Air-airport, I won't see him anymore
Silver wings across the sky
Vapour
trails that wave goodbye
To those below who've got to stay at home
I wish that I had flown
at night
So I could take that champagne flight
Rid myself of every tear I
own
Soaring high above the heavens
In a seven-forty-seven
Fighting back the tears
that curse my eyes
Captain's voice so loud and clear
Amplifies into my ear
Assuring me
I'm flying a friendly sky
L.A. International Air-airport, where the big jet engines
roar
L.A. International Air-airport, I won't see him anymore
L.A. Inte |
