[Verse 1]
I'm burning out, I'm turning down my friends tonight
So fucking tired, yeah, it must be from the red-eye flight
This lack of sleep is killing me, but I won't resign
Wish you were here, to mollify my fears
I'm sure that I'd been doing fine
[Refrain]
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
Omnipresence is a blessing, but it don't exist
I appreciate the presents, but it's your presence I dearly miss
[Refrain]
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Ooh-ooh
[Chorus]
Just know if I could be there
Get off tour and tour to you
And no one else would be there
It'd be like a shipwreck rise in the blue
I'd take off into thin air
Cramped in a seat with terrible food
Just know if I could be there
I'd get off tour and tour to you
Oh, I'd tour to you
[Verse 3]
A trip to Spain, we'll kill the pain for at least a while
I have it planned, the date I land and my boarding times
Still see your name, and your face, I still hear your sound
And when the plane lands in Spain is when I'll meet you in the underground
[Refrain]
Oh-oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
Just know if I could be there
I'd get off tour and tour to you
And no one else will be there
It'd be like a shipwreck rise in the blue
I'd take off into thin air
Cramped in a seat with terrible food
Just know if I could be there
I'd get off tour and talk to you
[Bridge]
I will meet you across the water
I will see you across the water
'Cause I wanna
When this tour's up I'll go on another
[Chorus]
I'll be there
I'll get off tour and tour to you
You know if I could leave here
I'd be like a SpaceX set for the moon
I'd take off into thin air
I'm cramped in a seat with a bird's eye view
You know if I could leave here
I'd get off tour and tour to you
Oh, tour to you
[Outro]
Airports are crowded, I'm surrounded by strangers, when
I'd rather it be just you and me, spending nights and missing flights again

This song is pretty self-explanatory. A chronological story about being in a long-distance relationship whilst being in a touring band, and sitting burnt out in a van/on a plane and literally counting the days on your phone calendar until you get to see somebody you miss again.
