[Intro]
Ohh, ohh oh oh oh
Ohh, ohh oh oh oh oh

[Verse 1]
He's addicted to her kisses
To those lips that he's been missing
To her whispers on the phone
Saying "baby, please come home,"
From a distance, he can listen
To her heart beat out her chest
When she touches her collarbone
Through a screen on another coast

[Pre-Chorus]
So he gets on that red eye
Even if it's all night long
Burning through the black sky
Be there before the morning comes

[Chorus]
Oh, he turns back from heaven's gates
Cause he can't live without her, oh
Girl, I wanna see your face
Cause he can't live without her, oh
[Post-Chorus]
R-r-r-red eye, eye
On flight 609, 9

[Verse 2]
Chasing taxis, yelling cabby
Bring me back my girl in Cali
Got to get his ticket on
2am, on the plane alone
Craves her madly, oh so badly
Would take a bullet for her gladly
She's the only drug he needs
Flying 30, 000 feet

[Pre-Chorus]
So he gets on that red eye
Even if it's all night long
Burning through the black sky
Be there before the morning comes

[Chorus]
Oh, he turns back from heaven's gates
Cause he can't live without her, oh
Girl, I wanna see your face
Cause he can't live without her, oh
[Post-Chorus]
R-r-r-red eye, eye
On flight 609, 9
R-r-r-red eye, eye
On flight 609, 9

[Bridge]
Let the lightning bang and the thunder roar
Cause he ain't never gonna stop, never gonna stop, never gonna stop 'till he's at
Her door

[Pre-Chorus]
So he gets on that red eye
Even if it's all night long
Burning through the black sky
Be there before the morning comes

[Chorus]
Oh, he turns back from heaven's gates
Cause he can't live without her, oh
Girl, I wanna see your face
Cause he can't live without her, oh

[Outro]
Yeahhh oh ohh
Burning through the, burning through the black sky oh, ohhh yeah
