San Francisco

Choking on the thought of leaving
Drinking to keep from sobbing
4pm, 4 dollar pints
The SFO, the time and price

With all my happiness aborted
The PA painfully starts boarding
I sink deep, 30 thousand feet
Into my window seat electric chair

And I was drinking you goodbye
A heart floats in the bay
From sour home Chicago
I hear it beating far away

And there's no telling what I'll do
If I don't return to you

Hopeful thoughts of soon returning
Can't put out my stomach burning
Plastic wings and plastic smiles
Unsalted peanuts to stretch my miles

Choking on the thought of leaving
Drinking to keep from heaving
5 PM 5 dollar pints
Hell bound Airlines, time and price

And I was drinking you goodbye
A heart floats in the bay
From sour home Chicago
I hear it beating far away

And there's no telling what I'll do
If I don't return to you

I was drinking you goodbye
A heart floats in the bay
From sour home Chicago
I hear it beating far away

There's no telling what I'll do
If I don't return to you
