Nanci Griffith - Outbound Plane lyrics
I don't wanna be standing here with this ticket for this outbound plane
'Cos I've been here before, somehow this doesn't feel the same
And talk is cheap, so we could talk all night long
We may never figure out just where your love went wrong
'Cos I don't wanna be standing here
And I don't wanna be talking here
And I don't really care who's to blame
'Cos if love won't fly on it's own free will
It's gonna 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
You may walk away from love but you'll fall head and heels again
'Cos I don't wanna be standing here
And I don't wanna be talking here
And I don't really care who's to blame
'Cos 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 cares where that other heart is going
But, if love won't fly on it's own free will
It's gonna catch that outbound plane
That frown you're wearing's just you're 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 for that lonely plane that's flying out
'Cos I don't wanna be standing here
And I don't wanna be talking here
And I don't really care who's to blame
'Cos if love won't fly on it's own free will
It's gonna catch that outbound plane
'Cos if love won't fly on it's own free will
It's gonna catch that outbound plane
