Another good one, Lisa. To me, these lyrics suggested a long-distance marriage or similar relationship. As such, I would suggest changing some of the smaller words to reflect their togetherness. It seems to me, though, unless they were meeting in a city where neither of them lived, they would want to go home rather than to an inn, but that's me. Anyway, my recommendations are in CAPS.
Red-Eye Flight
His biggest grin greets her at the airport A tiny pink blossom rests in his hand He kisses her once, again and again Before they drive away in THE/THEIR old van
His crowded backseat holds a huge bouquet He picked from THE/THEIR garden before he came Next to the tools of this hard-working man Sits a brown paper bag with cold champagne
CHORUS Romance landed tonight On a red-eye flight Though it's grounded in love THEY know it can't stay Very next evening It will fly away Returning on a red-eye flight
He whisks her off to a BED AND BREAKFAST Pours some sweet bubbly in two plastic cups They sip and discuss those hours that passed Since they had last savored love's tender touch
He gives her small gifts so she won't forget Devotion stays close through long distance fears Her favorite of all, his soft green t-shirt Is there to wipe away sad goodbye tears
BRIDGE She checks her baggage Yet leaves her heart with him He can't wait for the night Romance lands on a one-way flight
CHORUS Romance landed tonight On a red-eye flight Though it's grounded in love He knows it can't stay Very next evening It will fly away Returning on a red-eye flight
