Reasons to Smile
Reason to Smile #24: Hidden Lyrics

So today I was listening to “Watching Airplanes” by Gary Allan.  I don’t know how many times I’ve heard this song before, but this time I realized for the first time that he says, “I wonder what would happen if you looked out your window and saw me running down the highway, just like I was crazy.  But this fence is too high.  And so am I.“  And then he bursts right back into his “I’m just sitting out here watching airplanes,” very energetically.  It cracks me up.  The song has nothing to do with drugs or partying or anything even remotely related, and it’s just randomly thrown in there in the most awkward place.  I shouldn’t be so happy about this, but I really am.  How did I never hear that before?!
