Rick Derringer

The Airport Giveth (The Airport Taketh Away)

It's time to go

She holds her tears back

The airport giveth

The airport taketh away

The same old show

He says he'll come back

The airport giveth

The airport taketh away

That 747 - it brought me here

There she was, waiting at the gate

It's been almost a year

But showtime is so near

I have to hurry, I just can't be late

She watched me while i played

I watched the girls down front

Seems like some things never change

Tonight our love is real

It's all a man could want

But in the morning, right back in the game

It's time to go

She holds her tears back

The airport giveth

The airport taketh away

The same old show

He says he'll come back

The airport giveth

The airport taketh away

The airport giveth

The airport taketh away

The airport giveth

The airport taketh away

The airport giveth

The airport taketh away

The airport giveth

The airport taketh away
