Fly Away

You’d check your watch but remember you don’t own one
Waiting for the boarding call
I’d be better in the long run
If they don’t call your row at all

Aisle seat
Godspeed
Here’s to no turbulence

Newark through Miami to LA
Will take the better part of a day
Better have a book to read
Good luck trying to get some sleep

Above the clouds
You feel unbound
What you’d forget to bring

We’ll be thinkin’ bout you all the time you’re gone
If you get a sec please call me on the cell
If you miss me you won’t let on
But in your voice I can tell

This is your captain speaking
Tomorrow’s leaking into today

Don’t fly away
Don’t fly away
Don’t fly away from the ones you love

Don’t fly away
Don’t fly away
Don’t fly away from the ones you love

I’d be better in the long run
If they don’t call your row at all

Don’t fly away
Don’t fly away
Don’t fly away from the ones you love

Don’t fly away
Don’t fly away
Don’t fly away from the ones you love
