Miami International Airport Songtext
von Christie Chirinos

A taxi driver asked me where I′m from today
And I couldn't answer the question again
I never know how to explain
That where I′m from and where I'm home are worlds away

And I've worked so hard to forget
How trapped I felt on Military Trail
I never would′ve guessed how good it would feel
When we talked about the airplanes landing on Wilcox Field

I met him on the subway
And I never would′ve guessed that we were at the same show
Back in 2010 when I couldn't wait to leave home

And I know that he could not understand
But it doesn′t matter if I go back by his side
His mother loves me, and that's a start
′Cause if he and I go back it will be where we go last

He didn't know me when I set off
Said I′d conquer the world, and I mostly did so
He stayed connected while I cut it all off
Now he laughs when I admit that maybe I was wrong


And I know that he could not understand
But it doesn't matter if I go back by his side
His mother loves me, and that's a start
′Cause if he and I go back it will be where we go last

I could never face my fears
Until I had him near
Conversations in the dark
Warm me up to the idea
But what if I see the sun
And like a Florida wave
I break?

And I know that he could not understand
But it doesn′t matter if I go back by his side
His mother loves me, and that's a start
′Cause if he and I go back it will be where we go last

And I know, I know that he could not understand
But it doesn't matter if I go back by his side
His mother loves me, and that′s a start
'Cause if he and I go back it will be where we go last
But if he wants to go back that might be how long we last
But if he wants to go back that might be how long we last
