a three-hour delay
b/c of weather
far away
drinkin' my coffee
an old lady
drops a penny
i told my sister's kids
go slow w/ the growin'
me, i'm just watchin' the planes
(waiting for the tears to fall)
leaving what family i've got
behind
& no one to meet me
@ the next airport.
underaged kids
stir clear drinks w/ lime
& everyone's in line
waiting to make a call.
no one is @ home here
so everyone's at ease
cocktails keep the smiles on
but it's no place to be
Boston, Houston, Amsterdam
I'm headin' to New Jersey
where we're told a hard rain falls
so none can come or leave
