Air Miles [Original Version]
[Verse 1]
I'm leaving home
I’m going home
I'm leaving the fire
I'm going home
I’m leaving the cold
I'm leaving the finery
I'm going home
Where it's warm
[Verse 2]
I'm leaving the hate
I'm going home
I'm leaving the love
My heart's only desire
[Chorus 1]
My tickets arriving, looks like I’m flying
Atlantic crossing and it’s time to be leaving
Does it sound like I mean it?
Does it hurt to believe in?
In the air I'll be flying
Leaving the island
[Interlude]
[Bridge]
One last time, God, give me
One last time, God
Give me one good shot and I’ll be no more miller's man
[Chorus 2]
And then there'll be no more lying
No more screaming and crying (Screaming and crying)
No more groping to feed off the wide open spaces
[Interlude]
When you get up
Once you get up
Once you get up
Once you get up
Once you get up, I'll be here, you know that
Once you get up, give me the in or out
Once you get out, you’ll really be on your own
Once you get down, you'll know what's it all about
[Verse 3]
Don't know myself anymore
Who was I last time
I'm just an airline ticket to an out of date place
And I'm a slice of Americana lying under dust
You mean you don't have any answers you say
You're swimming upstream too you
Try to find some identity just by running the race
Running the race
Running the race
[Outro]
I'll be here, you know that (Listen to the moon)
