lyrics

Drinking the cheapest shot of whiskey
That I could get at this airport bar
And flipping through the magazines
Waiting for my flight to board.

Sit at the back of this puddle jumper.
Look out the window and take a picture.
I can’t sleep, so I’ll just sit
And think about how goddamn much I miss her.

But I know it’s for the better.

I guess I’m moving on
But I can’t say that I know how.
Just put one foot out
And pray there’s something there when I step down.
I guess this is letting go -
So long and good luck -
But if it’s really for the best
then why does it hurt so damn much?

All my friends and family
Shake their heads in sympathy
The same way that I do
Not knowing what’s to come of me.

But none of them can truly
Speak with any empathy
about this situation
but the one who’s leaving me.

The one I had to leave.

Maybe in five years,
We can see the well we wished each other.
Maybe in ten,
You’ll forget my mother’s middle name.
Maybe in twenty,
I won’t remember your birthday,
But when I die,
I bet I still see your face.
