I'm flying on a plane I saw the girl I came to see But now I'm leaving San Francisco A deep sea dive with a rock tied to my feet Never sounded fun to me But now I'm leaving San Francisco The plane won't wait so I just packed my bags Six months down the drain the pain is such a drag I try and drown out the pounding in my chest With my headphones As I'm leaving San Francisco The movie tonight on this flight Is your typical fight and break up then make up Love story As I'm leaving San Francisco We thought that we might hear each other better If we just yelled louder But it feels like every word we said was filled with gun powder As I'm leaving San Francisco I've got a headache like a razor blade is lodged inside my brain I've just begun contemplating going insane There's nothing like being thirty thousand feet up in the air all alone Leaving San Francisco Touchdown, walking out to the taxicabs Man I didn't have it so bad The changes I wouldn't make And the ways I wouldn't accommodate you wasn't worth half the love I had Call you up and apologize, you cry I'll give a little more on my side say give a little more on my side I like the way you feel in my arms too much To be a fool and give you up I already miss the sparkle in your eyes Hanging up the phone I book the first ticket home Three hours spent without you showed me how it feels on my own You're where I belong Back in San Francisco
