About A Bird In An Airport
There’s a bullfinch in the terminal
On the wrong side of the glass
I take my shoes off at security
And I half-hope I don’t get past
‘Cause I’ve been trying to get some distance
Between your world and mine
And it’s a path of some resistance
I’m not free just because I’m flying

And I swore when I left you last time
It was the last time I’d ever leave
If I soared right out of the atmosphere
You’d still have a hold on me
I board when they call the number
‘Cause I know where I need to be
If I change my mind I can always find you
Left of the devil, right of the deep blue sea
Right of the deep blue sea

If I ever (there’s a bird in the terminal) take the low road (and he’s never getting out of here)
WI know I’ll meet you there
And you’re gonna pull me
(I’m gonna make it the airport again)
Into the bathroom
(There’s the guys at security)
And we’ll trade that diamond stare
So, I check my pockets
(Gonna get a little distance)
For any evidence
(Gotta get away from company)
I want to leave without a trace
And the destination?
(I’m feeling the resistance)
It hardly matters
(Anywhere I ever run to)
I’m gonna find you in every place

And I swore when I left you last time
It was the last time I’d ever leave
If I soared right out of the atmosphere
You’d still have a hold on me
I board when they call the number
‘Cause I know where I need to be
If I change my mind I can always find you
Left of the devil, right of the deep blue sea
Right of the deep blue sea

And I swore when I left you last time
It was the last time I’d ever leave
If I soared right out of here
You’d still have a hold on me
I board when they call the number
‘Cause I know where I need to be
If I change my mind I can always find you
Left of the devil, right of the deep blue sea
Right of the deep blue sea
