| 24C don’t believe in God | 
| But he always prays when a thing takes off | 
| And the grandma that is next to | 
| Watches the window | 
| And 3B's got her headphones on | 
| Still not used to her daddy being gone | 
| She gets to see him every 3 months | 
| For a weekend | 
| Just people in planes | 
| 17 A’s in a exit row | 
| Waiting for his Jack and coke to show | 
| He’s just wishing he wouldn’t have | 
| Settled so fast in college | 
| And I’m over here in the middle seat | 
| Watching the world but half asleep | 
| Wondering why there’s never movies | 
| On the ones I’m on | 
| And it occurs to me | 
| Maybe I’ve got too much time to think | 
| But it helps to be | 
| Reminded how we’re | 
| Just people in planes | 
| When it comes down to it | 
| We’re side by side, on the same ride | 
| There’s not a whole lotta difference | 
| At the end of the day | 
| Just wanna know it’s gonna be okay | 
| Counting on somebody we can’t see to land this thing | 
| We’re just people in planes | 
| Hey, do you remember back when | 
| Your dad could still lift you then | 
| He’d pick you up and you’d think that you were flying | 
| You’d spread your arms and start to laugh | 
| Do you remember how to laugh like that? | 
| Why does that make me feel like crying? | 
| We’re just people in planes | 
| When it comes down to it | 
| We’re side by side, on the same ride | 
| Not a whole lotta difference | 
| At the end of the day | 
| Just wanna know it’s gonna be okay | 
| Counting on somebody we can’t see to land this thing | 
| Just people in planes | 
| The girl in front of me is spilling her guts | 
| To some lady she’s never met and never gonna see again | 
| It’s being weighing for a long time on her conscience | 
| There’s seat kickers and loud talkers, honeymoon lovers | 
| Several in the back there, looking hung over | 
| Must be coming back from Mexico or Vegas | 
| Just people in planes | 
| When it comes down to it | 
| We’re side by side, on the same ride | 
| Not a whole lotta difference | 
| At the end of the day | 
| Just wanna know it’s gonna be okay | 
| Counting on somebody we can’t see to land this thing | 
| We are all waiting on somebody we can’t see to land this thing | 
| We’re just people in planes, just people in planes |
