Dear friends:
We are back at Dulles this morning having spent in a nice hotel that was hard to appreciate because, well, we wanted to be in the Big Easy! Plus, they were out of king beds and so they gave us two doubles--how ironic for a mini-moon!
Anyway, here's the latest composition from our trip, lyrics composed to one of the first dance rejects. Click on this link to the song, so you can follow along:
Eric:
I can show you the airport,
Shoddy, shabby, and sad
Tell me princess, now when did you last see our dear old bags?
I can open your eyes,
Take you airport to airport,
Don’t you wish we had gone instead on a magic carpet ride?
A whole new airport!
A very tragic point of view:
Everyone tells us no!
Not where we want to go:
“New Orleans? You must be dreaming!”
Danielle:
A whole new airport!
Another place I never knew!
And when I’m way down here, it’s crystal clear,
I don’t want to be here, though I’m with you!
Eric:
Now I’m a whole new airport with you!
Danielle:
Unbelievable service,
Often not in the good way,
They sent us on trains, and pods, and to a shuttle to a hotel!
A whole new airport!
Eric:
Don’t you dare close your eyes!
Danielle:
100,000 delays to be had!
Eric:
Hold your breath, it gets better!
Danielle:
Wish I had a shooting star to take me far
away from the airport where I used to be
Every delay a surprise,
Eric:
with few horizons to pursue
Danielle:
(‘Least the hotel was red letter)
Eric & Danielle:
I’ll chase our connection anywhere, no time to spare,
let me share this new airport with you.
Eric:
A whole new airport
Danielle:
(A whole new airport)
Eric:
That’s where we’ll be
Danielle:
(Yup, where we’ll be!)
Eric:
A crazy chase
Danielle:
A tiring place
Danielle and Eric:
For you and me!
