Verse:
I've got my things, I'm good to go
You met me at the terminal
Just one more plane ride and it's done.
We stood like statues at the gate
Vacation's come and gone too late
There's so much sun where I'm from
I had to give it away, had to give you away.
And we spent four days on an island
At your family's old hotel.
Sometimes perfection can be,
It can be perfect Hell,
Perfect.
Chorus:
Hours pass, and she still counts the minutes
That I am not there
I swear I didn't mean for it to feel like this
Like every inch of me is bruised, bruised.
Don't fly fast. Oh, pilot can you help me
Can you make this last? This plane is all I got
So keep it steady now, cos every inch you see is
Bruised
Verse:
I lace my Chucks I walk the aisle,
I take my pills, the babies cry.
All I hear
Is what's playing through the in-flight radio
Now every word of every song
I've ever heard that made me want to stay
Is what's playing through the in-flight radio
And I, I am finally waking up.
Chorus
Bridge:
So read your books but stay out late
Some nights, some nights.
And don't think that you can't stop by the bar.
You haven't shown your face here since the bad news.
I'm here til close, with fingers crossed,
Each night cos your place isn't far.
()
And hours pass, and hours pass.
Yeah, Yeah
Chorus
