Lyrics

I've heard it said, the trick Is to set your watch when you hit the plane And that way you can trick The workings of a tired brain But sometimes I feel sick Sometimes I just feel so drained And cut down to the quick Longing for that voice again On the phone, you always ask if I'm okay It's not the same as being happy I travelled 14,000 miles last year And I'm working on the same again I fell for 15 different girls And nearly lost all of my friends But while I'm jet set, jet lag, jaded You're always 16 hours ahead Quietly reminding me how I used to be Airports make me sad I'm sure they shouldn't all be the same But they're just landing pads For boring tourist shopping chains I remember times we had Drinking while we'd wait for your plane I'm feeling kind of bad I'm wondering if I'll see you again And as I recall, I asked if you were okay But you just smiled and said you were happy I travelled 14,000 miles last year And I'm working on the same again I fell for 15 different girls And nearly lost all of my friends But while I'm jet set, jet lag, jaded You're always 16 hours ahead Quietly reminding me how I used to be I used to be slick Subtle young hips Romantic, young kissable lips Unbearably sharp Unbreakable heart With wide eyes and faith That life could never pull apart if we were OK Distance kills the best of intentions I never intended it to be this way I travelled 14,000 miles last year And I'm working on the same again I fell for 15 different girls And nearly lost all of my friends But while I'm jet set, jet lag, jaded You're always 16 hours ahead Quietly reminding me how I used to be I'm trying to remember how I used to be I used to be slick
