lyrics

Planes on the runway, frustration gives way to despair
All flights are grounded, all of our big plans are up in the air
Pilots all are joking, teenagers are moping, foreigners are smoking outside

Bags at the curbside, checked all the way to O’Hare
But she don’t say baby, have you got your camera, till half the way there
If I left the wrong impression
There’s something I should mention
‘Cause the air has too much tension up here

If I could make my mind up I would sleep instead
But I’m stranded, stranded in my head

It was just a missed connection, some problem with the engine
But the messages I’m sending aren’t clear

One of these mornings they’ll push this thing back from the gate
We’ll roll off the tarmac, rise over the hilltops and out of this state
But my suitcase isn’t on it; I should’ve just responded… I only wish I wanted to stay

If I could make my mind up I would sleep instead
But it’s all I can do just to get out of bed
'Cause I’m stranded, stranded in my head
