Suitcase waits by the door again
Morning rain on the glass and then
Another town I won’t pretend
Feels like home or makes me bend
Airport lights hum low and white
Same dead hours every night
Your voice stays close, just out of sight
In every song, in every flight
I count the days, I lose the dates
Running late through borrowed states
I keep going, never stay
Trading nights for getting paid
Every road just looks the same
Different names, the same old rain
I keep moving just to survive
But I’m missing the love of my life
Boardroom smiles, fluorescent days
Empty words they always say
They call this living, call it brave
I just feel myself decay
Hotel mirrors know my face
Every line, every trace
I talk to you in borrowed space
Count the hours I can’t replace
Every mile I justify
Feels like another small goodbye
I keep going, never home
Learning how to be alone
Every mile I justify
Pulls you further from my side
I keep breathing just to survive
But I’m missing the love of my life
Midnight trains on rusted rails
Window lights just pass and fail
Every house looks lived-in, warm
From the dark I’m moving through
You say you’re fine, I hear the strain
In every word I hear your pain
Don’t know how to help, what I can say
I want to be there everyday
I keep running, can’t sit still
Chasing time against my will
Every choice I try to save
Leaves another mark I hate
I keep moving just to survive
And I’m missing the love of my life
Dates and days just bleed to one
Promises I never done
I count the nights I didn’t stay
More than words I ever say
If home is more than where I land
More than flights I had planned
Then I’ve been lost, I understand
Chasing dust through foreign sand
I’m done going, I’m coming home
Tired of sleeping here alone
All these cities lose their names
Next to you they feel the same
I don’t need the miles I’ve survived
I just need the love of my life
I’m done going, I’m coming home
Tired of sleeping here alone
All these cities lose their names
Next to you they feel the same
I don’t need the miles I’ve survived
I just need the love of my life
I don’t want this other life
I just need the love of my life
I’m coming home
