That old Kentucky moon was shining bright as day |
|
The stars were all alive in the Milky Way |
|
The pilot said, "If you look close, there's Frankfurt on the right" |
|
I flew over our house last night |
|
Thirty thousand feet below me, you were fast asleep |
|
Thirty thousand feet above I almost stopped to weep |
|
So close and yet so far away, so wrong and yet so right |
|
I flew over our house last night |
|
Just for one moment I felt I was back in town |
|
The man your friends all say has only brought you down |
|
The airline hostess asked me, "Sir, are you sure you're alright?" |
|
I flew over our house last night |
|
Thirty thousand feet below me, you were fast asleep |
|
And thirty thousand feet above I almost stopped to weep |
|
I wonder did you toss and turn as I roared out of sight |
