[Verse 1] You said meet me at gate nine I brought my coat and my old good luck sign Your hand found mine through the crowd And the whole hard day got quiet now [Verse 2] Sunset leaned on the window frame Your reflection wrote my name We watched the runway pull us apart Then you smiled and pinned me to your heart [Pre-Chorus] Now the doors are open wide And I can feel that dizzy rise Every mile starts here tonight When you look at me like that [Chorus] On the air, on the air Love is up there somewhere On the air, on the air Hold me while we disappear On the air, on the air We were born for this thin blue air [Verse 3] Your voice came soft through the cabin glow Said don’t let go, don’t let go I traced your ring with my thumb Like a promise under my skin [Pre-Chorus] Now the clouds roll past the glass And all my fear turns into glass Every mile starts here tonight When you look at me like that [Chorus] On the air, on the air Love is up there somewhere On the air, on the air Hold me while we disappear On the air, on the air We were born for this thin blue air [Bridge] If we land too soon I’ll still be with you If the world shakes hard I’ll be your wing, your chart [Final Chorus] On the air, on the air Love is up there somewhere On the air, on the air Hold me while we disappear On the air, on the air We were born for this thin blue air [Outro] On the air Stay on the air On the air Hold me there
