A little ditty about moving away from somewhere you love.

lyrics

LYRICS:

It’s always 72. Sunny and blue.
In the most eastern room
of the house that grows with you.
How we used to try watching planes as they fly
overhead with the lamp street glow
glare back into our eyes.
And I don’t know why
it all came on down exactly how it did.
And I don’t know why
it all came on down. I think it’s best we keep it hid.

‘Cause it’s too late to call you back and
I don’t know what I would say anyway.
Too late to orchestrate, so we’ll give it a day.
Priorities change.
You can always just draft it and trash it all. Okay.

Freight airplanes in the night
may well be dots in the sky.
Specks of dust rattling walls
but that we’re not quite seeing right.
From the cornermost window I spot the stationary glow
of the domestic terminal a mile away at SFO.
United Airlines hangar on the edge of town
keeps their fleet all safe and hid.
And I don’t know why that thought broke me down,
but long story short, it did.

It was too late to call you back.
Didn’t know what I would say anyway.
Too late to rearrange, so we’ll give it a day
when the season changes.
We can always just draft it and trash it.
We’ll give it some days where the seasons change
and we can always just draft it and trash it all. Okay.

If you want this for yourself,
I mean genuinely,
you can take it from me.
I hypothesize I wanna stay here for myself
and what I thought it could be.
If I want this for myself,
I mean genuinely,
is what I thought I could be just a sad aside;
Photoshopped image of the self
and what I hoped I would see?
