I don't want to be standing here with this ticket for this outbound
Plane
Cause I've been here before and somehow it doesn't feel the same
But talk is cheap and we could talk all night long and we may
Never figure out just where our love went wrong
And I don't want to be standing here and I don't want to be talking here
And I don't really care who's to blame
'Cause if love won't fly on it's own free will
It's going to catch that outbound plane
The old folks say that love's not forever anymore
Because these young people walk away from love, alone to pace the floor
Young or old I say that love is still the same
And you may walk away from love but you won't fall over heels again
And I don't want to be standing here and I don't want to be talking here
And I don't really care who's to blame
'Cause if love won't fly on it's own free will
It's gonna catch that outbound plane
Two lonely hearts in this airport knowing,
Neither one cares where that other heart is going
But if love won't fly on its own free will
It's gonna catch that outbound plane
That frown you're wearing's just your halo turned upside down.
Where's 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, for that lonely plane that's flying out
And I don't want to be standing here and I don't want to be talking here
And I don't really care who's to blame
'Cause if love won't fly on it's own free will
It's gonna catch that outbound plane
