1000 Miles Of Mysery Lyrics

Runway Four, Flight 209 

Teardrop falls, we start to climb 

This window seat proved a poor choice

It shows a dream that's been destroyed

 

A little baby starts to cry

Hey, I would too if not for pride

I owe so much to pride it's true

It brought an end to me and you



But if i could, I'd turn around 

Set my feet back on the ground

'Cause all this plane ride holds for me

Is a thousand miles of misery



I hear the engines, watch the clouds

The whole damn world looks distant now

But I can't seem to put no space

Between my cold heart and your sweet face

 

Across the aisle they're holding hands

Revealing brand new wedding bands

But our sweet gold it's gone to rust 

Now my life has turn to dust

 

But If I could I'd turn around 

Set my feet back on the ground

'Cause all this plane ride holds for me

Is a thousand miles of misery

 

All this plane ride holds for me is a thousand miles of misery
