I Flew Over Our House Last Night
Tom T. Hall
Letra

That old Kentucky moon was shining bright as day
The stars were twinkling in a Milky Way
The pilot said if you look close there's Frankfort on the right
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
So close and yet so far away so wrong and yet so right
I flew over our house last night.

For just one second I thought 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 that you're alright
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
I wonder did you toss and turn as I roared out of sight
I flew over our house last night...
