The Airport Restaurant

V3

[Verse] On a warm summer night Where the moon's hangin' low I like to stand on an old grass airstrip Where ghostly whispers they flow And there's a restaurant at the end Where memories abide Where people came to drink and eat And set their troubles aside [Verse 2] The runway stretches out Like a grass carpet line The melody of laughter And glasses clinking time At the wooden bar Where Mumma cooks the food And John Glen tells his stories As uncle Leonard whittles wood [Chorus] Whispering wings in the midnight air As the moon and clouds above me gently stare Where strangers became friends And lovers found a tie In this haven of joy Memories of times gone by At the wooden bar. Where Mumma smiles at us kids. And all my cousins are in the room. And you can hear the pool table balls click.
