We said goodbye at the airport
And I watched you fly away
When you told be you were leaving
I didn’t really know what to say
the days are passing slowly
and there’s a dull throbbing pain
please help the aching stop
and make everything OK
(but)
I know it won’t last forever
I know that you’re coming back
And we can talk online whenever
But I just can’t stand the wait
It’s getting harder to fake a smile
I lose a little bit of me each day
counting down the hours
but the clock seems to slow
the days are never ending
and you don’t even know
how I cry myself to sleep
how I drive myself insane
how the emptiness is haunting me
I don’t mean to complain
(Because)
I know it won’t last forever
I know that you’re coming back
And we’ll be back together
But I just can’t stand the wait
It’s getting harder to fake a smile
I lose a little bit of me each day
You don’t really know what you have
Until it flies away
I know it won’t last forever
I know that you’re coming back
And we’ll be back together
But I just can’t stand the wait
It’s getting harder to fake a smile
I lose a little bit of me each day
