        C#m                A
On this coldest of January nights
                      B
We drive out past the runway and 
                    A
watch the planes go flying by
    C#m
The runway lights are the deepest 
              A
blue like the colors of your eyes
   B
So close them tight and 
                 A
kiss me one last time

   If you could go anywhere right now
                E  D
Where would you go?
              A
And would you miss me 
when you get there?

   No place that I would rather be

Please don't let me go

falling from the sky
     B
The "fasten seatbelt" 
                   A
sign just needs to go out
            E
If only you could be

right here by my side

  Home wouldn't seem 
            A
so far from here

To shut off all of your

electronic devices
C#m
Fell asleep on Tuesday
        A
woke up Monday afternoon

I slept right through 
                   A
your International Date Line
