Next Flight Home Songtext
von Troy Cartwright

Driving down 161
It′s five in the morning
Got my stereo playing
My headlights on
The engine light is flashing
Why, I don't know
But I′d hate to get stuck on the side

I'll be on the next flight home
In your arms, it's where I belong
And the city is great
But it′s you that makes me
Come around here and spend my time

And I know that you′re burdened by my lifestyle
But I got dreams, they need tending
It might take me a while
Hope you know I love you
And I'll always stay true
If it′s ever too much for you


I'll be on the next flight home
In your arms, it′s where I belong
And the city is great
But it's you that makes me
Come around here and spend my time

I know it′s not what you prefer
Still I hope you understand
I'm stuck somewhere in between
What I want and what I can stand

If I could I would dear
But you know I can't stay
I gotta keep on working
I got dues I have to pay
When the night is over
Well my thoughts turn to you
And the next time I get the chance to

I′ll be on the next flight home
In your arms, it′s where I belong
And the city is great
But it's you that makes me
Come around here and spend my time
My time
