when you said
"this is my favorite place in Kansas"
I didn't have the heart
to say "we're in Missouri"
but as the windows cycled by
around our table in the sky
I knew that you would be the one
to bring my face into the sun again
and you said
"I've got five giant older brothers.
don't mess around 'cuz they each
weigh a thousand pounds or more"
I laughed and swore to never
give them cause to swarm
and as we sped around the rink
I finally found the nerve to speak
I'd go anywhere with you
it doesn't matter what we do
come on now and fly with me
there are so many Skies to see
and when you got your first big offer
I knew it was too strong to keep
you in this town for long
we packed your things on Halloween
between the ghosts and ghouls
I couldn't help but make a scene
and as we drove you lost your voice
but as we checked your bags you said
you'd call me from Detroit
I thought I'd drive home in the rain
but as you left the ground
I booked my seat on the next plane
I'd go anywhere with you
it doesn't matter what we do
come on now and fly with me
there are so many Skies to see
the greatest gift I'll ever prize
was the welcome in your eyes
I'd go anywhere with you
it doesn't matter what we do
come on now and fly with me
there are so many Skies to see
