I’ve been crying on an airplane
Above the ocean
In the bathroom

I’ve been crying on an airplane
Near the heavens
In economy

I’ve been crying on an airplane
Filled with questions
Drinking small wines

I’ve been crying on an airplane
Because I’m leaving
This is unbearable

I make the firmament seem darker now than ever
As night clouds hide away the stars
Closing in on me with eyes so red and wild
Staring out the window wishing I was where you are

Refrão:
Fly away from the ones that we love
Fly away from one fine day.....yeah, yeah, yeah

I’ve been crying on an airplane
Shaking slightly
Lost in turbulence

I’ve been crying on an airplane
Because I lost love
And found new love

I’ve been crying on an airplane
Sleeping travelers
Hear me weeping

I’ve been crying on an airplane
The duty-free girl
She squeezed my shoulder

Refrão

I’ve been crying on an airplane
Racing forward
Like a sad bird
