Runway Lights
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Fly above the hills and valleys
High above the streets and alleys
On a home bound flight I carry
Love enough for one
My emotions overflowing
Anticipation growing
And the moment still not knowing
Seems to weigh a ton
And those scenarios
They spin in my mind
They drift, like the clouds
They sail through the night
And when I see those runway lights
In the town that I was born
I say a silent prayer you'll still be there
And as my plane is touching down
Will I still belong in the arms that held my life
Or have I stayed away to long
I see your face in midnight driftings
By my side I hear your heartbeat
Closer still I hold your memory
Precious in my mind
In the life that I've been chasing
So much times been wasted
I know I could be tasting
The love I left behind
And those scenarios
They spin in my mind
They drift, like the clouds
They sail through the night
And when I see those runway lights
In the town that I was born
I say a silent prayer you'll still be there
And as my plane is touching down
Will I still belong in the arms that held my life
Or have I stayed away to long
And those scenarios
They spin in my mind.....
And when I see those runway lights
In the town that I was born
I say a silent prayer you'll still be there
And as my plane is touching down
Will I still belong in the arms that held my life
Or have I stayed away to long
