Taking a ride to another climb
Knees in my back 'cause we're flying high
Seeing the mountains through the fog
Watching a film with a talking dog
Leaving the world down beneath the clouds
Hawaiian notes, don't need no pounds
Ache in my leg from a broken seat
Skipping the meal for a G&T
As we land, you pinch my hand
Up in the sky Honolulu bound
Steel guitar and the melee sound
Feeling the shapes keeps me reticent
Stuck in my seat from the turbulence
Breaking open skies of green earths
In our eyes we're falling
Our hearts in our throats
As we land, you pinch my hand
As the wheels, hit the ground
I'm breathing Hawaiian air
As the heat fills my lungs
I'm breathing Hawaiian air
