| I was driving out to meet you that night
|
| Getting reports on the weather
|
| You were coming home, had caught the last flight
|
| But we would soon be together
|
| You’d been gone such a long time
|
| When my radio gave the warning
|
| Chaos at the airport tonight, something ain' t right
|
| No-one can land in the weather
|
| Planes are crashing out of control
|
| And all in all I think you’ve lost him forever
|
| Looking up I started searching the skies
|
| Was he still up there above me
|
| Was the man who’d waved a million goodbyes
|
| Now just a stranger who loved me
|
| But as I drove to the terminal sign
|
| I heard a great loud explosion
|
| Chaos at the airport tonight, something ain' t right
|
| No-one can land in the weather
|
| Planes are crashing out of control
|
| And all in all I think you’ve lost him forever
|
| I ran so, so fast but if I could only reach you
|
| But you’re so far away, you’re oh so far away
|
| Landing lights approaching
|
| Out from a sea of darkness
|
| But you’re so far away, you’re oh so far away
|
| Like a bird of death it hovered around
|
| Until the wheels started turning
|
| Then I saw the jets just touching the ground
|
| And I could see it recurring
|
| And as I looked for the last time
|
| My radio gave the warning |
