Goodbye Gatwick

In a town that never changes
A tourist on their own streets
Waiting round on the same strangers
That we all annually meet
Ever-changing where we belong
Dependent on where we go
Moonlit sky
Goodbye Gatwick, hello

In a town that never changes
With a sky that flips the coin
Are we looking from the outside in
On a life we're scared to join

They say that right before you die
Your life flashes before your eyеs
I'm just wondering what I'll see
Where I'll bе
Who I'll remember from the day I meet them
Who's faces are only for the days I see them

I live where my life is
But there's debate if I'm living or doing what's right in
Life but isn't that a conundrum of paradoxical quality
What it means
What I'll be

I'm on a path of my choice
I'm here on my own damn terms
I'm here to live out my life
Trying not to let it burn
I strike the match for the spark
I keep it under control
But this fire's something new
And it's pretty damn AWOL

Watch the plane depart
Feel what's in my heart

In a town that never changes
A tourist on their own streets
Waiting round on the same strangers
That we all annually meet
Ever-changing where we belong
Dependent on where we go
Moonlit sky
Goodbye Gatwick, hello home

In a town that never changes
Same in cities with different names
I suppose I'm left to question
Which of these places is my place

Watch the train depart
Feel what's in my heart

I leave one home for another
To the place I make my own
Morning skies
Goodbye Gatwick, hello home
