lyrics

There’s an airplane with an empty seat
Flying over the ocean towards me
Bought the ticket but you didn’t show
Whole affair was over before it was even time to go

You’re mine, you’re mine I’m yours
Torn between two lovers

Final boarding and the cabin doors close
Cruising altitude and then the drinks are served
You’re not there drinking white wines complimentary
You’re not popping valiums, you’re not watching free movies
All trips come to an end
Some of them never begin

You’re mine, you’re mine I’m yours
Torn between two lovers
You’re mine, you’re mine I’m yours
Can’t have either or the other
You’re mine, you’re mine I’m yours
Torn between two lovers
Torn between two lovers

Always wanted to fall in love with an actor
Be okay with whomever they’re kissing that day
It’s only work, you know, we’ve all got to get paid
Not sure I’m ready for that but I’m sure I’m ready to change
What do pleasures of the flesh mean anyway?
We’re all growing old, all in decay

You’re mine, you’re mine I’m yours
Torn between two lovers
You’re mine, you’re mine I’m yours
Can’t have either or the other
You’re mine, you’re mine I’m yours
Torn between two lovers
You’re mine, you’re mine I’m yours
Can’t have either or the other

You say I love you, I’m not sure you do
You say that I love you and I’m torn between two lovers
You say I love you, I’m not sure you do
You say that I love you and I’m torn between two lovers
