Slips Away

Wheels touch down on the floor I'm all ready to go Know what I came here for Driving deep into night Looking up to the sky Seeing stars shining bright Falling leaves Palm trees Seems like time can freeze Even in the heat Just for a moment Just try to hold it Before it slips away Packed my bags, time to go Cruisin back extra slow Trying to hold on to that glow Wheels come up, I'm in flight Flying straight through the night I'll be back in due time Falling leaves Palm trees Seems like time can freeze Even in the heat Just for a moment Just try to hold it Before it slips away This is your captain speaking We just wanted to thank you for flying with us this evening We know you have a lot of choice when it comes to flying And, well, we appreciate your business We hope you had a pleasant stay in Los Angeles But please sit back, relax, and enjoy the remainder of the flight Welcome to New York Soon as the rubber of my sneakers hits the floor You better know I'll be breaking for the door Cus I gotta leave, gotta see, gotta be On line to take a taxi home It's just that energy of NYC Where I was born and home will always be, but I gotta leave, gotta see, gotta be Online to book a flight once more
