Lyrics:

That old Kentucky moon was shining bright as day
The stars were all alive in the Milky Way
The pilot said, 'If you look close, there's Frankfurt on the right'
I flew over our house last night

Thirty thousand feet below me, you were fast asleep
Thirty thousand feet above I almost stopped to weep
So close and yet so far away, so wrong and yet so right
I flew over our house last night

Just for one moment I felt I was back in town
The man your friends all say has only brought you down
The airline hostess asked me, 'Sir, are you sure you're alright?'
I flew over our house last night

Thirty thousand feet below me, you were fast asleep
And thirty thousand feet above I almost stopped to weep
I wonder did you toss and turn as I roared out of sight
I flew over our house last night

Thirty thousand feet below me, you were fast asleep
And thirty thousand feet above I almost stopped to weep
I wonder did you toss and turn as I roared out of sight
I flew over our house last night
