standing in that silent hall waiting for that final call says he doesn't love me anymore
shaking hands i pack a bag trembling voice i call a cat slowly i start walking to the door
cab arrives he blows his horn i stumble out in the early morn tell him of a place i've got to go
hit a hundred signal lights beat a bit and a traffic fire getting through these doors has
been so slow la international airport where the big jet engines roar
oh la international airport i won't see him anymore
a stewardess
in a mini skirt hippie in a leather shirt started on the way to naples rome
while i'm wondering where it's at see a paris diplomat college kids are trying to get back home
baggage cart goes quickly by i see my case and i start to cry stumble to the lounge to be alone
while i'm trying to get some rest bite my lips and try my best
fight the pain that's
making me leave home
la international airport
where the big jet engines roar
la international airport
i won't see him anymore
with silver wings across the sky vapor trails that wave goodbye to those below who've got to stay at
home
wish that i had flown at night
so i could take that champagne fly ridden myself of every tear I own
soaring high above the heaven in a 747 biting back the tears that curse my eyes
the captain's voice so loud and clear amplifies into my ear assuring me i'm flying friendly skies
la international airport where the big jet engines roar
Where the big jet engines roar
LA International Airport
I won't see him anymore
