Gate 24,
Flight to New Orleans,
The people crowd it,
The planes boarding,
I watch you walk away.
You're wearing those dark jeans,
The same ones you wore when I met you,
I wonder if you even realize it,
You're still walking.

The suitcases roll across the ground,
You're carrying your red back pack,
The one we carried that late night we were together,
I want you to grasp it,
Just like I want to,
But honestly, I just want you to hold.

Stopping at the ramp,
You sent a text that said,
"I can't look at you,
you know,
I won't be able to go."
Then you were gone,
You kept walking.

Miles apart,
Oceans wide,
The other side of the world,
It's not how it's suppose to be,
We're the two to get together,
And together we are suppose to be,
Skies and canyons,
Fields of green,
The world between us is beautiful,
But your still the most beautiful thing I've seen.
Maybe your the ocean and I'm the shore,
Your a bird and I'm the ground,
I'll be here when you land from whatever your on,
We both made our decisions,
Despite our pasts,
I just need you to know,
I'll be here when you land.

You know me,
I just fall to easily,
I met you and never looked back,
I fell in love with you fast,
I've been that way since,
I know I'm not easy to love,
But stand by me,
You're all I want to hold.

Do you want to be with me,
Just standing here trying to breathe,
Every moment feels like my last,
But without you here, I could care less,
When you're around everything falls in place,
You made me believe in love again,
And that was no easy task,
I've never believed in anyone like, I've believed in you,
Can I just tell you the truth?
Every little thing I do,
Every step I make,
There's only ever one thing on my brain,
And that one thing happen to be you.

If we were ever to separate,
It's be my final cut,
I'd just wander through life,
Not living at all,
But maybe if I could see you happy,
Maybe I could get through it,
And just keep on feeling numb,
I just wonder how life would be worth it,
If I didn't wander through it with you.

Let's be honest,
You drive me insane,
Most of the time I feel like
it's not just my heart you took,
it was my brain to,
Your in every breath I breathe,
How do you do that,
Do I do that to you?
Is that why your around,
Is that why we're clinging to each other this way,
Maybe we've finally realized,
It's not just lust anymore,
There's no way out anymore.

Was this really the last time,
If it is I don't want out of this bed,
I don't think you want this either,
We just aren't making sense,
We're having one of our bad nights,
We're both just hurting a little to much,
Let's just stay quite,
Hold me tight like you used to,
I'm not letting go of you,
I always feel a little to much love for you,
I'm always scared to lose you,
Without you, what am I?
Just half a person,
A empty hand,
All these spaces in between my fingers,
My brains going a million different ways,
I want you here babe,
So please stay.

It was another Saturday night,
I worked a double,
I was asleep on my feet,
Then there you were.
It was a quarter till ten,
Almost time to leave.
I knew I'd have to stay because of you.
I marched back and forth in that dining room,
Wishing you'd leave,
I knew you felt the vibe,
It was practically a scream.
Then across the room,
You yelled to me your name,
I didn't care,
So you said it again.
I went to you,
I watched you,
You were so beautiful,
Or maybe I was just delusional,
Thirteen hour shifts will do that to you.
I didn't care about clocking out,
I didn't even know where to start,
So I just told you our specials,
And started to leave,
But I just couldn't walk away,
I've never walked away..
