Looking through the tarmac rain
Rows of giant birds
They're all feeding at the gates
There are tails from all over the world
A million people in between
Hurry by the TV screens
And I just sit here, missing a girl
A cuppa coffee, an airport bench
A carry-on and me
Something messed up my connection
To where I want to be
Something happened, the line dropped out
It's something she don't wanna talk about
I just sit here, missing a girl
Overhead the speakers tell me, one more delay
Hear the numbers, but my heart is a million miles away
She made it clear we could still be friends
But she won't be there to meet me at the other end
I just sit here, missing a girl
She made it clear
I try to see it through these tears
I know it's true
I just sit here missing a girl
And I just sit here missing a girl
I just sit here missing a girl
