Alex Turner - Despair In The Departure Lounge - Текст песни

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 them 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,
It's one and they'll still be around at three,
No signal and low battery,
What's happened to me..
