the night flight from houston - laurie anderson lyrics

Loading...

it was the night flight from houston.
almost perfect visibility.
you could see the lights
from all the little texas towns far below.
and i was sitting next to a fifty-two year old woman
who had never been on a plane before.
and her son had sent her a ticket and said:
“mom, you’ve raised ten kids; it’s time you got on a plane.”

she was sitting in a window seat staring out
and she kept talking about the big dipper and that little dipper and pointing;
and suddenly i realized that she thought we were in outer sp-ce
looking down at the stars.

and i said:
“you know, i think those lights down there are the lights from little towns.”
