Despair In The Departure Lounge

Lyrics

He's pining for her
 In a people carrier
 There might be buildings and pretty things to see like that
 But architecture won't do
 Although it might say a lot about the city or town
 I don't care what they've got, keep on turning 'em down
 It don't say the funny things she does
 Don't even try and cheer him up, because
 It just won't happen
 ♪
 He's got the feeling again
 This time on the aeroplane
 There might be tellys in the back of the seats in front
 But Rodney and Del won't do
 Although it might take your mind off the aches and the pains
 Laugh when he falls through the bar
 But you're feeling the same
 'Cause she isn't there to hold your hand
 She won't be waiting for you when you land
 It feels like she's just nowhere near
 You could well be out on your ear
 This thought comes closely followed by the fear
 And the thought of it makes you feel a bit ill
 ♪
 Yesterday, I saw a girl who looked like someone you might knock about with
 And almost shouted
 And then reality kicked in within us
 It seems as we become the winners
 You lose a bit of summat
 And half wonder if you won it at all
 And don't say 'owt 'cause you've got no idea
 And she's still nowhere near
 And the thought comes closely followed by the fear
 And the thought of it
 Makes you feel a bit ill
 Despair in the departure lounge
 Is one and they'll still be around at three
 No signal and low battery
 What's happened to me?
