First Flight Home
Jake Miller Lyrics

I hope you still remember what I look like
I am worried that you might have forgotten how I look due to being apart from you for some time.

I haven't seen you in a minute
It has been quite some time since we last met.

Last night I had the kind of dream that you just don't wanna wake up from
I had a beautiful dream about you that I wish I could keep experiencing.

And that's cause you were in it
The reason for the beautiful dream was that you were a part of it.

So this morning when I woke up it felt more like a nightmare
Waking up and realizing that the dream was not real made me feel sad and disappointed.

'Cause I rolled over I thought you'd be right there but nope
I expected to see you next to me when I woke up, but you were not there.

I'm just laying here alone
Being alone without you is making me feel sad and unhappy.

On my own wishing I was on the first flight home
I am longing to be with you so much that I am wishing to be on the first flight home to see you.

I'll be home in no time
I will be with you very soon.

I promise when I touch down it'll be like I never left singin'
I promise that when we meet again, it will feel like I never left and we will be singing joyfully.

By the way check your phone cause I just sent you a text sayin'
I am informing you that I have sent you a text message, so please check your phone.

Hey, I've been gone forever
I have been away for a very long time.

I'm coming home tonight
I am returning home tonight to be with you.

We'll be back together this plane gon fly
We will finally be together again when I reach there on the flight that I am taking.

I can't predict the weather
I cannot say anything about the weather conditions at the moment.

But you should know that I
You should have faith and confidence in me.

I'll be on the first flight home
I am taking the first flight home to meet you.

And I bet if I left right now
I am confident that if I leave immediately, I will be able to reach you by tomorrow morning.

I'd probably make it to you by the morning
I believe I will be able to reach you by tomorrow morning if I start traveling now.

So I'm packing up my bags hopping on this red eye
I am packing up my bags and catching the midnight flight to see you.

I'll be there before your eyes even open
I will be there to surprise you even before you wake up.

Hurry up and tell the pilot to take off
I am asking you to hurry up and ask the pilot to start the flight soon.

So we could pick up right where we left off
We will be able to resume our relationship from where we had left off earlier when we meet again.

I can't believe it, I'm finally on my way
I am very excited and can't believe that I am finally on my way to meet you.

Feels so damm good to be able to say
It feels really great to be finally able to say that I am coming to see you.

I'll be coming back tonight keep your head up to the sky cause'
I am reminding you to keep your spirits high because I will be returning tonight.

Yeah and I now pull up to your driveway
I have now arrived and stopped my car outside your home.

Been a while since I've been on this block
It has been a long time since I have been on this street.

And now I walk up to your front door
I am now walking up to your front door to meet you.

I know you recognize that same knock
I am sure that you will recognize the sound of my knock on your door.

I hear you running down the stairs now
I can hear the sound of you running down the stairs to greet me.

Tears running down your face
You are crying and tears are running down your face.

Then you open up that front door
You open the front door to let me in.

And I look at you and say
I look at you and say something.

But I know I've been gone forever
I am aware that I have been away for a very long time.

But I'm finally home tonight
But I am finally back home tonight.

Now that I'm here I'm never leaving your side
Now that I am here, I am never going to leave you alone.

I told you I was coming
I had promised you that I would come back to you.

Sorry it took so long
I am apologizing for taking so long to come back to you.

I was on that first flight home
I had taken the first flight to come back home to you.
