I Flew Over Our House Last Night

(앨범: The Rhymer And Other Five And Dimers - 1973)

That old Kentucky moon was shining bright as day
The stars were twinkling in the milky way
The pilot said if you look close there's frankfort 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

For just one second I thought 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 that 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
I flew over our house last night
