DSM TO DEN Lyrics

I met you in an airport, at first our flights aligned

Played cribbage in a coffee shop until departure time

One minute in anxiety, the next one spent in awe

I couldn't wait to touch down in Denver, it seemed to take so long

I thought we'd make this airline home until we built our own

Weekend flights and calls at night, let what we started grow

Window seats with perfect views of the miles in between

Dreaming of the days to come, just the doctor and me

We found when we were in the air yours landed before mine

I asked if you would wait for me, you promised that you'd tried

Everything in transit, I was living in between

You wanted something permanent, but you wouldn't wait for me

I thought we'd make this airline home until we built our own

Weekend flights and calls at night, let what we started grow

Window seats with perfect views of the miles in between

Dreaming of the days to come, just the doctor and me

I booked a flight back home alone, I guess I should have known

Expect an unexpected change when you make an airline home

I see why Andrew sang of airports: there's no answers there

Just passengers and passports going up and down the stairs

I met you in an airport, at first our flights aligned

It took a while to realize we had different landing times
