| 5 I'm leaving now. | |
| 6 My bags are packed, my ticket held firmly in hand. | |
| 7 My hair flutters about my shoulders as the wind kisses me goodbye, | |
| 8 Her gentle touch a momentary distraction. | |
| 9 Where are you? | |
| 10 I thought you would come to see me off. | |
| 11 But I hate long goodbyes. | |
| 12 I hate the tears and the pain. | |
| 13 I hate missing you so much. | |
| 14 But I won't miss you long. | |
| 15 | |
| 16 My bags are packed, I'm ready to go. | |
| 17 The time is almost ready. | |
| 18 I'm leaving early, you see. | |
| 19 They wanted me to stay much longer, | |
| 20 But I really must be going. | |
| 21 This place, it holds too much sadness for me. | |
| 22 The tears drown me in their numbers. | |
| 23 So I'll be off now, as soon as my ride arrives. | |
| 24 The flight attendant is a beautiful woman | |
| 25 With short black hair and a midnight cloak and a scythe that reflects the moonlight. | |
| 26 Her face is white, pale as newly fallen snow. | |
| 27 She beckons me. | |
| 28 My flight has arrived. | |
| 29 But still I balk, looking for you. | |
| 30 I still want to say goodbye. | |
| 31 I'm sorry that I must leave, but I can't stay here any longer. | |
| 32 | |
| 33 My eyes scan the deserted area for you, hoping that I'll have one last chance, | |
| 34 To kiss away your tears, to collapse into your arms and lose myself forever in their comforting embrace. | |
| 35 But you will not come. | |
| 36 You do not see me. | |
| 37 Inspiration strikes as I dig through my purse, finally settling on a pen and paper. | |
| 38 I will write you a letter. | |
| 39 A letter to explain why I had to leave. | |
| 40 I will leave it behind for you to read. | |
| 41 I quickly jot down my note, the pale cloaked woman gazing over my shoulder. | |
| 42 Crimson droplets sprinkle across my letter, a final signature on it's tear soaked surface. | |
| 43 | |
| 44 They say that it's always darkest before the dawn. | |
| 45 I'm sorry I couldn't wait till morning. | |
| 46 I love you, my darling. | |
| 47 But the flight attendent says I have to go. | |
| 48 My flight goes a long way up. | |
| 49 I'll always be watching over you. | |
| 50 Goodnight, my love. | |
| 51 Sweet dreams. | |
| 52 Never say goodbye, because even though I leave, I will never be apart from you. | |
| 53 The view... | |
| 54 it's... | |
