Letra de «Stop This Flight»
Sixteen hours from London, flying on a DC-10
You know, I wonder if when that plane sets down
I'll ever be able to walk again
I spent thirty-five days in Europe
Singing 'til my voice is gone
You know, there's never enough time to get a good night's sleep
What is this road that I've been running on?
I've got to stop this flight I've got to get back to earth Hey, I'm a human being God knows what that's worth
I'm not meant to be stranded on some empty stage And end up lonely in my old age I've got to stop, stop this flight
People try to twist your message Reporters try to twist your mind You know I just can't wait 'til I can get back home I really miss that girl of mine She's the only one I really talk to She's where my heart begins and ends It ain't no love-for-money relationship We were teenage buddies, and childhood friends
I've got to stop this flight I've got to get back to earth Hey, I'm a human being God knows what that's worth
And now I'm moving like a dancer on an empty stage But I'll be risen from this prison at the end of the age I'm always locked up in the studio Hey, this ain't no way to live You know, they never like my albums 'til the records sell And they always want more than I can possibly give I've been struggling for inspiration Hoping that the songs don't flop And I'll be waiting like a beggar for the item to drop You got to live up to the contract 'til they tell you to stop You've got to stop this flight You've got to get back to earth Hey, we are human beings God knows what that's worth
We're not meant to be trapped in this fleshly cage And end up screamin' like a demon at the end of the age Stop this flight...
I've got to stop this flight I've got to get back to earth Hey, I'm a human being God knows what that's worth
I'm not meant to be stranded on some empty stage And end up lonely in my old age I've got to stop, stop this flight
People try to twist your message Reporters try to twist your mind You know I just can't wait 'til I can get back home I really miss that girl of mine She's the only one I really talk to She's where my heart begins and ends It ain't no love-for-money relationship We were teenage buddies, and childhood friends
I've got to stop this flight I've got to get back to earth Hey, I'm a human being God knows what that's worth
And now I'm moving like a dancer on an empty stage But I'll be risen from this prison at the end of the age I'm always locked up in the studio Hey, this ain't no way to live You know, they never like my albums 'til the records sell And they always want more than I can possibly give I've been struggling for inspiration Hoping that the songs don't flop And I'll be waiting like a beggar for the item to drop You got to live up to the contract 'til they tell you to stop You've got to stop this flight You've got to get back to earth Hey, we are human beings God knows what that's worth
We're not meant to be trapped in this fleshly cage And end up screamin' like a demon at the end of the age Stop this flight...
