Jet Lag

"Heard it," said the trick
Is to set your watch when you hit the plane
That way you can trick
Workings of a tired brain
Sometimes I feel sick
Sometimes I just feel so drained
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 traveling forty thousand miles last year
And I am working on the same again
I fell for fifteen different girls
And nearly lost all of my friends
Well I am jet set, jet lag, jaded
You're always sixteen 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
Boring tourist shopping chains
I remember times we had
Drinking while we wait for your plane
Feeling kinda bad
Wondering which one of us has changed
'Cause we 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 okay
But distance kills the best of intentions
And never intended it to be this way
I traveling forty thousand miles last year
And I am working on the same again
I fell for fifteen different girls
And nearly lost all of my friends
Well I am jet set, jet lag, jaded
You're always sixteen hours ahead
Quietly reminding me how I used to be
I'm trying to remember how I used to be
Used to be slick
That was the one
(What? Was it?)
Yup
