Don't want to be standing here

With this ticket for this outbound plane

Cause I've been here before

And somehow this doesn't feel the same


Talk is cheap so we could talk all night long

We may never figure out just where your love went wrong


Chorus:

Don't want to be standing here

And I ain't gonna want to be talking here

And I ain't gonna really care who's to blame

If love won't fly out on its own free will

It's going to catch that outbound plane


The old folks say that love's not forever any more

Because these young people walk away from love alone to pace the floor

Young or old guys say that love is still the same

And you may walk away from love but you'll fall head and heels again


Two lonely hearts in this airport knowing

Neither cares where that other heart is going


That frown your wearing's just your halo turned upside down

Where is the laughter we once shared back in the lost and found?

These broken wings are gonna leave me here to stand my ground

And you can have this ticket to that lonely plane that's flying outside
