lyrics

VERSE
we were strangers on a plane
I was running on empty …
you were a sight for sore eyes
we’ll never come back here again
but I don’t take this lightly
be my temporary friend.

love it when you hold my hand when we’re touching down (x2)

CHORUS
Airplanes are for lovers
otherwise we never would’ve met
nothing lasts forever
but you made sure i’d never forget

VERSE 2
it’s amazing how we speak
you’re touching my shoulder
I know what you mean
if only we could stay together
if only we had more time
to this moment we’d surrender

PRE-CHORUS
love it when you hold my hand when we’re touching down

CHORUS
Airplanes are for lovers
otherwise we never would’ve met
nothing lasts forever
but you made sure i’d never forget

BRIDGE
kiss me lightly cuz it’s our first and last goodbye
kiss me lightly cuz it’s our first and last goodbye
Our first and last goodbye

take this seat beside me
we’ll talk into the night …..
would you still understand me
if my words don’t come out right?

MODULATION

CHORUS
CHORUS
Airplanes are for lovers
otherwise we never would’ve met
nothing lasts forever
but you made sure i’d never forget

take this seat beside me
we’ll talk into the night …..
would you still understand me
if my words don’t come out right?

would you still understand me
if my words don’t come out right?
would you still understand me
if my words don’t come out right?
