Leaving San Francisco Lyrics

I'm flying on a plane

I saw the girl I came to see

But now I'm leaving San Francisco

A deep sea dive with a rock tied to my feet

Never sounded fun to me

But now I'm leaving San Francisco

The plane won't wait so I just packed my bags

Six months down the drain the pain is such a drag

I try and drown out the pounding in my chest

With my headphones

As I'm leaving San Francisco

The movie tonight on this flight

Is your typical fight and break up then make up

Love story

As I'm leaving San Francisco

We thought that we might hear each other better

If we just yelled louder

But it feels like every word we said was filled with gun powder

As I'm leaving San Francisco

I've got a headache like a razor blade is lodged inside my brain

I've just begun contemplating going insane

There's nothing like being thirty thousand feet up in the air all alone

Leaving San Francisco

Touchdown, walking out to the taxicabs

Man I didn't have it so bad

The changes I wouldn't make

And the ways I wouldn't accommodate you wasn't worth half the love I had

Call you up and apologize, you cry

I'll give a little more on my side say give a little more on my side

I like the way you feel in my arms too much

To be a fool and give you up

I already miss the sparkle in your eyes

Hanging up the phone

I book the first ticket home

Three hours spent without you showed me how it feels on my own

You're where I belong

Back in San Francisco
