She soars through skies, a life in flight,
Slipping away among the runway lights,
He drifts through those days, a path unknown,
Wandering places he can't yet call home,
Their worlds collide but never stay,
Fate pulls them close, then fades away.
She waits by the gates, roster changes, short stays,
As he's getting lost in the fumes of this Bangkok haze,
The clocks move fast, but we stand still
Lost in the pull of fate's own will
We keep missing in the air
Destiny playing truth or dare
Between the gates and the duty-free
But Dubai waits for you and me
She finally gets that Bangkok flight,
But he's off to Hong Kong, out of sight.
She waits in the city, plans set to bend,
Only to miss him once again.
He takes the reins, he's going all the way
No more drifting, no more delays,
He gets that flight, she thinks it's all pretend
He'll find her now, before they're old and spent.
We keep missing in the air
Destiny playing truth or dare
Between the gates and the duty-free
But Dubai waits for you and me
Through thousand miles and endless skies,
We've met in glances, no goodbyes
The Chase is over, the moment's here
A yearlong journey finally draws us near!
We keep missing in the air
Destiny playing truth or dare
Between the gates and the duty-free
But Dubai waits for you and me
We keep missing in the air
Destiny playing truth or dare
Between the gates and the duty-free
But Dubai tonight is you and me
