lyrics

Waiting at the gate the say “the plane’s too hot to fly”
And “folks we know and folks we’re sorry
But it’s 85 degrees inside”

“Too hot for who?” I think
Like 85 is painless
If I’m cozy slowly dozing off
to seat-back entertainment

Wake up we’re over Akron
A place I’ve never been
Just an hour north and east from
Where I used to sleep with him

What good does the altitude do
When I’m taller than ever and tiny to you
What good are the tailwinds today
When I’m almost always facing the wrong way

Lowering the landing gear and putting up the trays
And folks it’s 40 in Manhattan
Folks we hope you’ve had a pleasant day

Eyeing on the cabin crew
Who patiently deplane us
Through the gridlock in the aisle that the guy behind me finds outrageous

Long week and I’m exhausted
Missed you but not a lot
So he took off my newest dress in Austin at the Marriott

What good does the altitude do
If I’m taller than ever and tiny to you
What good are the tailwinds today
When I’m almost always facing the wrong way
