Lyrics
Took the call on a sleepy morning

Must have been early I was too busy yawning

What’s doing John we need you up here

Ready for a stint just pack up all your gear


Walked through the gate–QF 558

Once in the plane city lights spin into space

Above the clouds it's a silver liner

for all I know might be heading to China


I am missing you


Before I know it the plane comes to land

As I pick up my bags I think getting money’s a drag

Work all day to take home some pay

‘cept’ where I stay’s not my home today


I am missing you


Need a break from the daily grind

Look up to the sky–see that thin white line

Silver bird streaks across the sky

It reminds me oh why oh why oh why


In a hotel room late at night

can't wait till for dawns early light

I’ve packed my bags and I’m ready to go

Just about had it with this whole damn show

How many nights I’m all out of phase

How many days will it take to get over this haze


I am missing you

Sing it out

Great song writer
Wow, so many lovely comments- thanks- I tuned the E down to a D and played
away with that tuning.

I'll have to finish off a couple of others that are just about in the can.
