Next Plane Out Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I listen to the sound of the rain fallin' down my window
Prayin' for a gentle wind
To bring my baby back again
Tryin' to be strong but I'm not getting any stronger
Loneliness is tearin' apart this heart of mine

[Pre-Chorus]
I lie awake
'Cause I can't take
Another night lonely
It's been too long
I can't hold on no more

[Chorus]
Leavin' on the next plane out
'Cause I gotta see my baby
It's been too long
Since I held him in my arms
And I just won't sleep at night
'Til he's sleeping here beside me
Here beside me again

[Verse 2]
Talking on the phone but that don't make it any better
Nothing's gonna ease this pain
Until I'm in his arms again
Runnin' down the stairs there's a taxi that's waiting for me
Loneliness, I'm gonna leave you far behind
I'd walk for days
Through pouring rain
Anything to be with him
It's been too long
I can't be strong no more
[Chorus]
Leavin' on the next plane out
'Cause I gotta see my baby
It's been too long
Since I held him in my arms
And I just won't sleep at night
No, no, no, no
'Til he's sleeping here beside me
Here beside me again
I gotta be with my baby

[Bridge]
Gotta be with him
Gotta be by his side, yeah
I'm gonna be with him
My heart's made up my mind

[Chorus]
I'm leavin' on the next plane out
'Cause I gotta see my baby
It's been too long
Since I held him in my arms
And I just won't sleep at night
No, no, no, no
'Til he's sleeping here beside me, yeah
Here beside me again, again, again, again, again, again
[Bridge]
It's been too long
Since I held him in my arms
And I just won't sleep at night
No, no, no, no
'Til he's sleeping here beside me
Here beside me again
I gotta be with my baby
Gonna be with my baby
I'm gonna take the next plane
Or the next train
Gotta get there
Gotta see my baby
And nothing's gonna stop me
From leavin' this town
Leavin' on the next plane out
Leavin' on the next plane out

[Outro]
Next plane
Next train
