Mary Koomjian - Into the Air Lyrics

There at a roadside, a late summer day
A dream of the world back then
They sadly embraced and said their goodbyes
See you sometime baby, until then
Then she headed North with an untold past
That she'd hid from him all those years
And when trouble hit the field runnin'
West of Boston somewhere
The life she knew was now strange and clear

She still sees him standing there
The color of the sky, music in the air
But sometimes she felt the need to disappear
Into the air

A quiet year went by, the city it called
To try his luck in the race with a hometown girl
But nothing seemed to amount to much
So he packed it up again
So lost within that world
Then he headed North, maybe just for the summer
When he took that detour West, an old friend's whim
No vision of the past, or of all that was to come
A life ahead, waiting for him, and a

Stacked deck in the dealer's hand
He wonders about a master plan
No thought of lose or win, still a longing
What might have been

He still sees her standing there
A North Country road to anywhere
And he prays to the memory
And sometimes he feels the need to disappear
Into the air
Into the air
Into the air, into the air, into the air, into the air
