lyrics

And as she's headed towards the airport, I am on my knees, I'm begging her not to go. I can't stand alone. If I can't be by your side, then I'll stand up and watch you fly.

Your jet stream's trailing off, into the sky. I'm trailing off when I said "Goodbye."

So this is your sad song, you should've seen this coming. The worst part about our love, is when it ends and time keeps flowing. We're taking chances, as we wait for the day, when the bets that we've made turn around on us and finally pay.

And as she's headed towards the airport, I pick up my keys and hit the open road. I'll take the long way home. I slowly sink into my front porch, staring through the trees. I'm longing for you to know, how long I can stand alone.

How long can I? I'm trailing off when I said "Goodbye."

So this is your sad song, you should've seen this coming. The worst part about our love, is when it ends and time keeps flowing. We're taking chances, as we wait for the day, when the bets that we've made turn around on us and finally pay.
