Landing Gear
Feel the drag of the landing gear It's nothing to fear Like a ghost of the sunglasses on your head Long gone but there's something there Slipped into the town car and floated away Dim lights on your license plate Feel like crumpled contents of an old coat pocket A lost bird in the airport lobby I keep telling myself that it's all the same Whether love is long or short and sweet I was lucky to know you, it's all the same To them Bet you cry yourself to sleep In a room near the ice machine Two elevators open and close Drunk voices walking by the door I keep telling myself that it's all the same Whether someone is humble or big and grand I was lucky to know you at all my friend To land I see you going places SongtexteI feel you going places with me I see you as the reason to rhyme How long ‘til we hit our time? The moon's just a sliver of light [3:56?] … all night Snowflakes in a streetlight fall Piano notes that wander off Just smoking embers that can't be caught So beautiful when we saw them I see you going places I feel you going places with me Aus Songtexte Mania
