Cheek-bones pinched and tired
It's a cold tarmac breeze
That wraps the terminal around
Flight-times drag the night along
Cab skids down the freeway
Time to find a bed
For the weeks ahead
It's goodbye
Ice-lines rim the city streets
And tire-whines rip the blacktop
And the lamps wheel above
The misty overpass
And Bergman's face in black and white
Repeated down the alleys
A prayer above
For broken love
And goodbyes
Juliet in travel coat
Leans wasted on the window
Takes a long, long drag
To try and settle down
It kills her how he turned away
How he ripped their love apart
Starts to cry
Lets the curtain fall
It's goodbye
Jet-lag cramps the lonely face Cheek-bones pinched and tired It's a cold tarmac breeze That wraps the terminal around Flight-times drag the night along Cab skids down the freeway Time to find a bed For the weeks ahead It's goodbye Ice-lines rim the city streets And tire-whines rip the blacktop And the lamps wheel above The misty overpass And Bergman's face in black and white Repeated down the alleys A prayer above For broken love And goodbyes Juliet in travel coat Leans wasted on the window Takes a long, long drag To try and settle down It kills her how he turned away How he ripped their love apart Starts to cry Lets the curtain fall It's goodbye Explain Request ×
