You count the minutes and days
Until you close the distance and space
Between bodies while you leave mine to waste
Do you know
That your eyes speak but they’re lying?
Can’t help your visions far sighted
Am I blurry or do you just like flying?
Who knows
Where are you running to from what’s right in front of you?
You once said the coast never felt quite like home
Now he’s taking everything, our glances and poetry
But I’m sure he’s waiting, so go

But when your flight touches down
does it weight on your conscience?
What you left behind as you walk past the cockpit
You are the one who I wanna run to
But it seems like you’re running away
My heart’s been on fire since the Monday we met
But you never felt it so you’re headed west
My bitterness showing, I don’t want you going
But I’m not enough for you to stay

So close but we couldn’t touch it
Now all I hold is a grudge against timing
And numbers from angels they lie
Like the tongue that I bite for you
What makes him right for you
When he went missing, did that make you miss him?
You know I could to the same
Move to the golden state
But you said he’s perfect I know

But when your flight touches down
does it weight on your conscience?
What you left behind as you walk past the cockpit
You are the one who I wanna run to
But it seems like you’re running away
My heart’s been on fire since the Monday we met
But you never felt it so you’re headed west
My bitterness showing, I don’t want you going
But I’m not enough for you to stay

I never knew love before you
So don’t fall in love with California
Don’t you say I didn’t warn you
Losing things we can’t afford to
He’s heaven-sent, he’s Hollywood
He’ll never know just what he took away
But I don’t blame you, you made it home
When the morning sun is still asleep
Do you envision him or me?
If we met before, would you still want to board

That flight touching down as it weighs on your conscience
What you left behind as you walk past the cockpit
You are the one who I wanna run to
But it seems like you’re running away
My heart’s been on fire since the Monday we met
But you never felt it so you’re headed west
My bitterness showing, I don’t want you going
But I’m not enough for you to stay

And it seems like you’re running away
And I’m not enough for you to stay
