The Mutton Birds - Ngaire lyrics

The plane touches down The lounge fills up again With retired couples from the midwestern USA They blink in the foreign light And admire each other's shoes I've seen a lot of new shoes today You should have let me know That you weren't getting on your flight You should have called me so I wouldn't be calling you now On this line you sound so strange And I'm running out of change I'm standing, but it feels like falling... Ngaire I'm not lying to you Ngaire I've been trying to do right from the start And if you doubt what's in my heart you can break it open But be careful when you do 'Cause inside there's a girl who looks like you You knew I had to come here You knew there was no work at home You said you'd join me when the coast was clear Now I take the escalator down I get the bus back into town I'm as free as the planes up in the air Is that the sun That's rising on you now? And did it shine The day you changed your mind? Oh Ngaire, oh Ngaire Oh Ngaire I'm not lying to you Ngaire I've been trying to do right from the start And if you doubt what's in my heart you can break it open But be careful when you do 'Cause inside there's a girl who looks like you Inside there's a girl who looks like you Inside there's a girl who looks like you Inside there's a girl who looks like you Inside there's a girl who looks like you Looks like you Looks like you
