L. A. International Airport

Standing in the silent hall, waiting for the final call
Says he doesn't love me anymore
Shaking hands, I pack a bag. Trembling voice, I call a cab
Slowly I start walking to the door
Cab at rest, clothes to sort, stumbling in the early morn
Telling them the place I've got to go
Passed a hundred signal lights, I paid the bills and a traffic fine
Getting through these doors has been so slow

L.A. International Airport
Where the big jet engines roar
L.A. International Airport
I won't see him anymore

Stewardess in a miniskirt, a hippie in a leather shirt
Started on the way to Naples Road
While I'm wondering where it's at, I see a pair, a diplomat (?)
College kids are trying to get back home
Baggage car goes quickly by, I see my case and start to cry
Stumbled to the lounge to be alone
While I'm trying to get some rest, I bite my lip and try my best
To fight the pain that's making me leave home

L.A. International Airport
Where the big jet engines roar
L.A. International Airport
I won't see him anymore

With silver wings across the sky, paper trails, I wave goodbye
To those below who've got to stay at home
Wish that I had flown at night, so I could take that champagne flight
To rid myself of every tear I own
Soaring high above the heavens in a 747
Fighting back the tears, I curse my eyes
Captains voice over loud and clear, empathizing to my ear
Ensuring me I'm flying friendly skies

L.A. International Airport
Where the big jet engines roar
L.A. International Airport
I won't see him anymore
L.A. International Airport
I won't see him anymore
