I sit here in my aeroplane seat There’s only one pause left that allows me to sleep I don’t know why, but I think I’m alright Taking off now to fly through the night
But even so my eyes are wide open: I cannot shape the way you make me feel
The longest day Was when I was away from you The longest day Was when I was away from you
The aeroplane is entirely to blame That the gap between us is insane
I am staring at the lady in the yard I will sit here and remember us for a while: What it was like with you and how you turned me on But now it’s time for me to take those memories back home
The longest day Was when I was away from you The longest day Was when I walked away from you
How can I resist another day Not to be with you, my love, to help me on my way?
I sit here in my aeroplane seat There’s only one pause left that allows me to sleep
