I need to leave and not tell anyone where I'm going.
I've booked a plane ticket and plan to go
in two weeks time.

I need to get away from here and the gentleman
who's breaking my heart to pieces.
See if he notices.

I'm turning my phone off for a week or two.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder
and coming back makes them realise

just how much they've always needed you.
I just need to see if they'll be waiting
at arrivals in three weeks or so.

And if they're not, I'll move. For good.
