i waited w/ you until the woman called your flight
& when i wished you a safe trip you wouldn't look me in the eye
you tried to think of something else when i kissed you at the gate
it was too sad a moment to try to contemplate

i wish that there was something i could do or say
to make it so you didn't have to go away
i wish that you would look at me but i don't want to see you cry
i wish that you would turn around you never even said goodbye
