1
Last time I was on a flight I was racing to see you
2
I'd packed flip-flops and a new black bathing suit
3
But from the very moment I got off that plane
4
All I saw through every window was pewter-colored rain
5
On Friday night you tried to make me smile
6
But everything about you was faded and diluted
7
You were much more solid in my memory
8
Up close you looked like a poor facsimile
9
Flight, flight
10
Never should have caught that flight, flight
11
Never should have caught that flight, flight
12
Never should have caught that plane
13
On Saturday morning we tried to go to the shooting range
14
We tried to make homemade pumpkin soup for lunch
15
We paid too much to go to the pinball machine show
16
And we both agreed "” was so-so
17
We sat inside so much of that long, long weekend
18
On your grandmother's old furniture "” that itchy couch
19
And broken chair "” at least the bed, thank God, was new
20
But by Sunday morning we both knew we were through
21
Flight, flight
22
Never should have caught that flight, flight
23
Never should have caught that flight, flight
24
Never should have caught that plane
25
I want to be so close to someone I can count all their eyelashes
26
Want to be so close they'll ask to know my mother's middle name
27
I want to be so close to someone they'll know what I'm about to say
28
Want to be so close to someone that's why I got on this plane
29
So on Sunday morning we had our talk
30
And complimented ourselves for not being mean
31
And tried to figure out the best way to still be friends
32
But what we were really saying was "The end, the end, the end, the end, the end, the end, the end, the end"
33
Flight, flight
34
Never should have caught that flight, flight
35
Never should have caught that flight, flight
36
Never should have caught that plane
37
Flight, flight
38
Never should have caught that flight, flight
39
Never should have caught that flight, flight
40
Never should have caught that plane
