Jet Airliner - Steve Miller Band

The times were hard and I was running I could feel my chance was coming Another time, another place The pillow filled with frozen tears See the gates, a distant fire Shows the way, to my desire Laying down my heart for you 'Cause I'm lonely, feelin' blue I know that I'll never die of love But I'll never get enough Oh, I got no time to lose On my avenue to a jet airliner Avenue to my broken dreams My avenue to a jet airliner Like an old, old movie-scene My, my avenue to a jet airliner Brings me back to the dreams I loved Good guys only win in movies But this time babe I'll get tough (The avenue is closed, is closed forever) Love can breed misunderstanding But my heart will soon be landing Another love on golden wings Oh, I'll buy you diamond rings Waitin' for a lonely rainbow Magic wave where will I go Breaking down my heart to you 'Cause I'm lonely, feelin' blue I know that I'll never die of love But I'll never get enough Oh, I got no time to lose On my avenue to a jet airliner Avenue to my broken dreams My avenue to a jet airliner Like an old, old movie-scene My, my avenue to a jet airliner Brings me back to the dreams I loved Good guys only win in movies But this time babe I'll get tough (But you know, yes you know You can change it, you can change it).

The avenue, the avenue is closed The times were hard and I was running I could feel my chance was coming Another time, another place A pillow filled with frozen tears See the gates, a distant fire Shows the way to my desire Laying down my heart for you 'Cause I'm lonely, feelin' blue I know that I'll never die on love But I'll never get enough Oh, I got no time to lose On my avenue to a jet airliner Avenue to my broken dreams My avenue to a jet airliner Unlike an old, old movie-scene My avenue to a jet airliner Brings me back to the dreams I loved But good guys only win in movies But this time babe, I'll get enough The avenue is closed, is closed forever Love can breed misunderstanding But my heart will soon be landing Another love on golden wings Oh, I'll buy you diamond rings Waitin' for a lonely rainbow Magic wave where will I go Breaking down my heart to you 'Cause I'm lonely, feelin' blue I know that I'll never die on love But I'll never get enough Oh, I got no time to lose On my avenue to a jet airliner Avenue to my broken dreams My avenue to a jet airliner Unlike an old, old movie-scene My avenue to a jet airliner Brings me back to the dreams I loved But good guys only win in movies But this time, babe, I'll get enough The avenue is closed, is closed forever
