The Terminal Lyrics

Woke before the dawn

Grab my bag and then I'm gone

Until the next year

(Save for a funeral)

Dawn of the final day

Can I start another game?

Can I stay here?

On the quiet drive into the terminal, you'd explain how much they need me

(Here I am)

Had me in your home

Watched them grow

Now they're grown

Can I stay?

How do I say

Goodbye

I'll think about you, even when I don't want to

Goodbye

I didn't want it to be this way

Goodbye

I'll think about you, even if I don't know you

Can I have a few more days?

Do they deserve me at my best?

Will they desert me like the rest?

Why don't I value my own damn time?

Given so much away to people who'd already made up their mind

White knuckle every connection made

Oh, how do I say

Goodbye

I'll think about you, even when I don't want to

Goodbye

I didn't want it to be this way

Goodbye

I'll think about you, even if I don't know you

Can I have a few more days?

We did what we could with what we had

But we all know the king of the desert's coming

So, at the dawn of the final day

You know the song that you must play

When you want to go back

Well, I thought I'd have more fucking time

But there you are, waving at me from the other side of security

Goodbye

I'll think about you, even when I don't want to

Goodbye

I didn't want it to be this way

Goodbye

I'll think about you, even if I can't stand you

Can I have a few more days?
