Jet Lag - Frank Turner

Jet Lag - Frank Turner
I've heard it said the trick is to set your watch when you hit the plane
And that way you can trick the workings of a tired brain
But sometimes I feel sick sometimes I just feel so drained
And cut down to the quick longing for that voice again
On the phone you always ask if I'm okay
But it's not the same as being happy
I traveling forty thousand miles last year
And I'm working on the same again
I fell for 15 different girls
And nearly lost all of my friends
Well I am jet set jet lag jaded
You're always 16 hours ahead
Quietly reminding me how I used to be
Airports make me sad I'm sure they shouldn't all be the same
But they're just landing pads for boring tourist shopping chains
I think of times we had drinking while we wait for your plane
And feeling kind of bad and wondering which one of us has changed
Because we used to be slick with supple young hips
Romantic young kissable lips unbearably sharp unbreakable heart
Wide eyes and faith that life could never pull us apart if we were okay
But distance kills the best intentions
And never intended it to be this way
I traveling forty thousand miles last year
And I'm working on the same again
I fell for 15 different girls and nearly lost all of my friends
And though I'm jet set jet lag jaded you're always sixteen hours ahead
Quietly reminding me how I used to be
I'm trying to remember how I used to be
Used to be slick
