AIRPORT
(Andy McMaster)

The Motors - 1978




So many destination faces
Going to so many places
Where the weather is much better
And the food is so much cheaper
Well, I help her with her baggage
But her baggage is so heavy
I hear the plane is ready
By the gateway to take my love away

And I can't believe that she really wants to leave me 
And it's gettin' me so
It's gettin' me so
(Airport)
(Airport)
You've got a smilin' face
You took the one I love so far away
Fly her away, fly her away
(Airport)
(Airport)
You've got a smilin' face
You took my lady to another place
Fly her away, fly her away

The plane is on the move
And traces of the love we had in places
Are turning in my mind
How I wish I'd been much stronger
For the wheels are turnin' faster 
As I hear the winds are blowin'
And I know that she is leavin'
On the jet plane way down the runaway

And I can't believe that she really wants to leave me
And it's gettin' me so
It's gettin' me so
(Airport)
(Airport)
You've got a smilin' face
You took the one I love so far away
Fly her away, fly her away
(Airport)
(Airport)
You've got a smilin' face
You took my lady to another place
Fly her away, fly her away

(Instrumental Break)

I can't believe that she really wants to leave me
And it's gettin' me so
It's gettin' me so
(Airport)
(Airport)
You've got a smilin' face
You took my lover to another place
Fly her away, fly her away
(Airport)
(Airport)
You've got a smilin' face
You took my lady to another place
Fly her away, fly her away
(Airport)
(Airport)
You've got a smilin' face
You took the one I love so far away
Fly her away, fly her away
(Airport)
(Airport)
You've got a smilin' face
You took my lady to another place
Fly her away, fly her away
(Airport)
(Airport)
You've got a smiling face
You took my..........FADE
