[Intro]
Hoohoo, baby (uh)
Ohoohoh, ohoohohohoh
Oohoohooh, yeaheheah
Ohoohohoh

[Verse 1]
Now it's gettin’ late (about 3 one morning)
Still awake and on the red eye
I been workin' all day and just need a chance to relax
So I can lay my head back and close my eyes

Then a hand leans on my shoulder
And I turn around and she says:
"Excuse me, but I can't be late
Could you show me to Gate #28?"

[Pre-Chorus]
But I, I never got to tell her ’cause
I really didn't know where it was
Cause when I first laid my eyes on her
I couldn't even tell you where my head was

[Chorus]
I wish her flight had been delayed
Cause I woulda never let her get away
But my mind and my lips wouldn't tell me what to say
Now she's turning for Gate 28
I reached out my hand to pull her back
But she was gone and she didn't even turn around
I should've gotten her name
Before she ran away to Gate #28

[Verse 2]
I guess I kinda messed up
My time wasn't on my side
I mighta let a good one slip
Right outta my life

And all I saw was the color of her hair
And what she wore
So I hope she forgot about something
So she could come back through that door

[Pre-Chorus]
I never got to tell her ’cause
I really didn’t know where it was
Cause when I first laid my eyes on her
I couldn't even tell you where my head was

[Chorus]
I wish her flight had been delayed
Cause I woulda never let her get away
But my mind and my lips wouldn’t tell me what to say
Now she's turning for Gate 28
I reached out my hand to pull her back
But she was gone and she didn't even turn around
I should've gotten her name
Before she ran away to Gate #28
