“If This Plane Goes Down” lyrics

If this plane goes down, I'm holding you

Middle seat, you stole the window
Took my pretzels, took my arm
Thirty thousand feet of nothing
And you're sleeping like a farm
Then the whole thing drops a little
And the cart goes rolling by
And you grab me without thinking
And I swear I'm fine to die

And the pilot's getting quiet
And the coffee's on the floor
I don't need to see the runway
I just need you here for sure

If this plane goes down, I'm holding you
Seat belt on and my hand on yours too
Let it shake, let it shake, let the cabin lights go
If this plane goes down, I'm holding you

(Ooh, ooh) I'm holding you
(Ooh, ooh) Holding you
Let it shake

I was scared of heights and flying
I was scared of you, it's true
Now the oxygen is swinging
And I'm only scared for you
Tell my sister she can have it
All the records, all the shoes
Not a thing I'd want to carry
Except you, except you

And the pilot's getting quiet
And the coffee's on the floor
I don't need to see the runway
I just need you here for sure

If this plane goes down, I'm holding you
Seat belt on and my hand on yours too
Let it shake, let it shake, let the cabin lights go
If this plane goes down, I'm holding you

And if we land, let's get married
In the airport, in the rain
Take the ring off a gum wrapper
Say the vows on the plane
And if we don't, well I'm ready
I got everything I came for

If this plane goes down, I'm holding you
Seat belt on and my hand on yours too
Let it shake, let it shake, let the cabin lights go
If this plane goes down, I'm holding you

(Ooh, ooh) I'm holding you
(Ooh, ooh) Holding you
Let it shake
