Flight 709 pulled up to the gate
|
An hour and 45 minutes late
|
And of course our connection was already in the air
|
Spent a day of our vacation in Chicago O'Hare
|
And like musical chairs at the baggage belt
|
We were the last ones standin' there when nothin' came out
|
Looking back now on our string of bad luck
|
That just wasn't our day but you know what?
|
|
That one night in Las Vegas
|
Lyin' there with you
|
Was well worth everything that you and I went through
|
|
And so it goes, our life's been that way
|
Puttin' out fires, takin' it day by day
|
And look at this year, it's been our hardest one yet
|
Just when we thought it had gotten bad as it could get
|
You got transferred to Denver, I stayed behind
|
Put the house on the market 'bout went outta my mind
|
And your dad got sick, I've never seen you so scared
|
We almost didn't make it through the year
|
|
But that weekend in the mountains
|
In a cabin all by ourselves
|
Makin' that one memory made up for everything else
|
|
Oooh me and my insecurities
|
You and your stubborn pride
|
If we've learned anything it's there's no winner when we fight
|
|
So this mornin' in our kitchen
|
After talkin' all night long
|
We finally stopped tryin' to figure out
|
Who's right and who is wrong
|
And when you hold me like you're holdin' me
|
And I kiss your tired face
|
We know we took the long way here
|
But wound up in a better place
|
|
Baby one night in Las Vegas
|
Or one weekend in the mountains
|
Any moment we're together makes up for everything else
|
