I tend to jump ship
before I've even boarded
I'm halfway to the gate
before you catch your flight
I'm about to ask you to stay
Or maybe take me away
I'm so afraid of being cliche
So I don't board
or catch your plane
Instead
I walk the other direction
Chalk it up to a missed connection
You'll always question if it was you
It wasn't
