A Straighter Line

Ellington

    Continues after the ad

    11:30 fingers crossed
    That I get home in time to see you off
    The terminal girl says your bags are packed
    But oh my god, I hope your plane is infact delayed in transit
    And you have some time
    To get some coffee maybe tell me why?
    Remember when I made you smile
    You won't find someone like me wherever you go

    Waiting in the rain, pouring in the car park
    Even if you stay would you see it through?
    Out here all night, out here all night.
    Belligerently you step forward and I dont know what to do!
    Except kiss you on the lips and show you what you've missed
    And hope that you come home!

    I touch your face, you take your breath.
    I take your hand this is as sad as love gets!
    Your plane is bording they fixed that faulty wheel.
    As you depart I saw your hand against that glass
    And in that moment we found closure at last!

    Waiting in the rain, pouring in the car park
    Even if you stay would you see it through?
    Out here all night, out here all night.
    Belligerently you step forward and I dont know what to do!
    Except kiss you on the lips and show you what you've missed
    And hope that you come home!

    I hope that faulty wheel breaks when you land in new york!
    And you step off that plane and wonder why you're a thousand miles away
    From a boy who knew exactly what to say!
