Choking on the thought of leaving
Drinking to keep from sobbing
4pm, 4 dollar pints
The SFO, the time and priceWith all my happiness aborted
The PA painfully starts boarding
I sink deep, 30 thousand feet
Into my window seat electric chairAnd 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 youHopeful thoughts of soon returning
Can't put out my stomach burning
Plastic wings and plastic smiles
Unsalted peanuts to stretch my milesChoking on the thought of leaving
Drinking to keep from heaving
5 PM 5 dollar pints
Hell bound Airlines, time and priceAnd I was drinking you goodbye
A heart floats in the bay
From sour home Chicago
I hear it beating far awayAnd 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 awayThere's no telling what I'll do
If I don't return to you
