The Terminal

Woke before the dawn
Grab my bag and then I'm gone
Until the next year
(Save for a funeral)
Dawn of the final day
Can I start another game?
Can I stay here?
On the quiet drive into the terminal
You'd explain how much they need me
(Here I am)
Had me in your home
Watched them grow
Now they're grown
Can I stay?
How do I say

Goodbye
I'll think about you, even when I don't want to
Goodbye
I didn't want it to be this way
Goodbye
I'll think about you, even if I don't know you
Can I have a few more days?

Do they deserve me at my best?
Will they desert me like the rest?
Why don't I value my own damn time?
Given so much away to people who'd already made up their mind
White knuckle every connection made
Oh, how do I say

Goodbye
I'll think about you, even when I don't want to
Goodbye
I didn't want it to be this way
Goodbye
I'll think about you, even if I don't know you
Can I have a few more days?

We did what we could with what we had
But we all know the king of the desert's coming
So, at the dawn of the final day
You know the song that you must play
When you want to go back

Well, I thought I'd have more fucking time
But there you are, waving at me from the other side of security

Goodbye
I'll think about you, even when I don't want to
Goodbye
I didn't want it to be this way
Goodbye
I'll think about you, even if I can't stand you
Can I have a few more days?
