Good afternoon, folks, this is your captain speaking. We'll be heading west today non-stop from Boston to Los Angeles.
Flight time is about 5 hours 45 minutes . We're just about ready to take off. Flight attendants, please be seated for departure.
A stranger behind me falls asleep
One in front watches TV
Every seat's filled except for the one next to me
Moving six hundred miles per hour through time
Desertеd corn fields to city sky lines
All looks the samе to my mind
It's hard to see the difference between
Downtowns and endless dirt
When my eyes are blurred
Everyone hears the baby crying but no one hears me
And all I hear is your final words at terminal C
Abandoned your favorite spot and gave this view to me
Now I see it all from your window seat
Pilot turns on the seatbelt signs
It's not as smooth as the start of the ride
Our journey got for over two years time
Still I thought you'd be taking up all my space
But you took another plane where I swearing going to the same place
It's hard to see the difference between
Who we are and who we were
When my eyes are blurred
Everyone hears the baby crying but no one hears me
And all I hear is your final words at terminal C
Abandoned your favorite spot and gave this view to me
Now I see it all from your window seat
I fly from east to west
Chasing a sunset, chasing a reset
But I can't get rest
Drowning in sorrows, where is the life vest?
Some day I'll forget the pain and the heartache
But I'm not there yet
For now I try my best to safely land
Cause everyone hears the baby crying but no one hears me
And all I hear is your final words at terminal C
Abandoned your favorite spot and gave this view to me
Now I see it all from my window seat
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Los Angeles. And weather is clear skies and 78 degrees. On behalf of your crew, thank you for flying with us. And enjoy the rest of your journey.
