Would it be alright if I took a seat by your side?
On this TWA 4-in-the-morning red eye
Sippin' on microwave coffee and single serving wine
While I wait for the Captain to turn off the seatbelt sign
So you can join me in the aisle
And we can go dancing in the sky
Tell me what took you all this time
'Cause lust becomes love when you get this high
I'm runnin' away from the silent types
And the million mistakes I've made in my life
And I found you today on this hell of a night
Settle down with me thirty-thousand-feet above ground
And keep your head above the clouds
In this transatlantic love that we found
Well the sun rose late
And I called you to see if ya felt the same way
Mama says I've come of age
But when I look into the mirror
My face still seems the same
I know that life's not supposed to be a movie
But I'll be damned if my life was made for TV
So I got us a reservation for a room with a kitchen
So I'll cook you the dinner that'll stop you from leavin'
I'm runnin' away from the grounded sky
To the Beverly Hills Hotel for the night
And I found you today on this hell of a flight
Settle down with me thirty-thousand-feet above ground
And keep your head above the clouds
In this transatlantic love that we found
