Takeoffs and Landings Songtext
von The Ataris

On this coldest of January nights
We′ll drive out past the runway
And watch the planes go flying by
The runway lights are the deepest blue like the colors of your eyes
So close them tight and kiss me one last time

If you could go anywhere right now
Where would you go
And would you miss me when you get there?
There's no place that I would rather be

Please don′t let me
Go falling from the sky
This fasten seatbelt sign just needs to go out
If only you could be
Right here by my side
Home wouldn't seem so far from here


Passport, customs, carry-on, remember
To shut off all of your
Electronic devices
Fell asleep on Tuesday, woke up Monday afternoon
I slept right through your international dateline

If you could go anywhere right now
Where would you go
And would you miss me when you get there?
There's no place that I would rather be

Please don′t let me
Go falling from the sky
This fasten seat belt sign just needs to go out
If only you could be
Right here by my side
Home wouldn′t seem so far from here

Please don't let me
Go falling from the sky
This fasten seat belt sign just needs to go out
If only you could be
Right here by my side
Home wouldn′t seem so far from here


Please don't let me
Go falling from the sky
This fasten seat belt sign just needs to go out
If only you could be
Right here by my side
Home wouldn′t seem so far from here
