Runaway Lights

Fly above the hills and valleys, high above the streets and alleys
On a home-bound flight, I carry love enough for one
My emotions overflowing, anticipation growing
And the moment still not knowing seems to weigh a ton

And those scenarios, they spin in my mind
They drift like the clouds, they sail through the night

And when I see those runway lights
In the town that I was born
I say a silent prayer, you'll still be there
And as my plane is touching down
Will I still belong in the arms that held my life
Or have I stayed away too long?

I see your face in midnight driftings
By my side, I hear your heartbeat
Closer still I hold your memory precious in my mind
In the life that I've been chasing, so much times been wasted
I know I could be tasting the love I left behind

And those scenarios, they spin in my mind
They drift like the clouds, they sail through the night

And when I see those runway lights
In the town that I was born
I say a silent prayer, you'll still be there
I wonder as I'm touching down
Will I still belong in the arms that held my life
Or have I stayed away too long?

And those scenarios, they spin in my mind

And when I see those runway lights
In the town that I was born
I say a silent prayer, you'II still be there
I wonder as I'm touching down
Will I still belong in the arms that held my life
Or have I stayed away too long?

And when I see those runway lights
In the town that I was born
Oh, will you still be there?
I wonder as I'm touching down
Will I still belong, or have I stayed away too long?

Oh, will you still be there?
I wonder as I'm touching down
Will I still belong, or have I stayed away too long?
