Airplane Away Lyrics by Barrett Riggins

Good Ol’

2019

[Verse]
(uh this next song is called Airplane Away)
Airplane away is a very vague distance
Airplane away is deceptively far
I couldn't say what I wanted to say, girl
And now I think I might not settle
Anywhere away from where you are
Even if my insides turn to metal
The fact that you're not here is more bizarre
Airplane away is a tangible figure
It shouldn't stay but it stays just the same
Can't find a way to fill gaps in between us
And if I tried to coast the whole Atlantic
To get closer, I could not
So now I start to think the romantic gesture
Is thе only move I've got
[Chorus]
Driving away costs more than I can handlе
Riding the bus is tedious and slow
Walking on foot could take me hours
And I know that I would not be close enough
You know I know that I would not be close enough
Every place I go would not be close enough
[Verse]
Airplane away is a meaningless measure
Airplane away measures nothing at all
In our own way, we have never been closer (right?)
It's hard for one small voice to carry
Through the changing temperature out there
And if I say aloud "I love you very much"
It's strange to know you may not care
[Chorus]
Driving away costs more than I can handle
Catching a train - expect severe delays
Walking on foot could give me blisters
And I know that I would not be close enough
Maybe Seattle
You know I know that I would not be close enough
Maybe Toronto
Every place I go would not be close enough
[Bridge]
She's far away
He had a dream that she was here
Then woke up and remembered she's away
[Verse]
Airplane away is a tiring mantra
I think I can I think I can would be fucking preferred
I'm no wise man and my logic is trying
But with the distance plus the lack
Of all communication, it's absurd
To think you've given me this heart attack
And I just go on doting undeterred
[Chorus]
Driving away costs more than I can handle
Riding the bus is tedious and slow
Walking on foot could give me blisters
And I know that I would not be close enough
Maybe Seattle
You know I know that I would not be close enough
Maybe Toronto
You know I know that I would not be close enough
Maybe Atlanta
You know I know that I would not be close enough
Maybe Las Vegas
You know I know that I would not be close enough
Maybe Chicago
You know I know that I would not be close enough (oh)
Every place I go would not be close enough
