This song is related to Andy’s ex-girlfriend, Scout Taylor-Compton. The title was given as she was the daughter of a mortician. It’s basically a long distance relationship song.
[Verse 1]
I open my lungs dear I sing this song at funerals, no rush
These lyrics heard a thousand times, just plush
A baby boy you've held so tightly
This pain it visits almost nightly
Missing hotel beds I feel your touch
[Verse 2]
I will await dear, a patient of eternity, my crush
A universal still, no rust
No dust will ever grow on this frame
One million years and I will say your name
I love you more than I can ever scream
[Chorus]
We booked our flight those years ago
I said I loved you as I left you
Regrets still haunt my hollow head
But I promised that I will see you again
Again
[Verse 3]
I sit here and smile dear
I smile because I think of you and I blush
These bleeding hollow dials, this fuss
A fuss is made of miles and travels
Roadways are but stones and gravel
A bleeding heart can conquer every crutch
[Chorus]
We booked our flight those years ago
You said you loved me as you left me
Regrets still haunt your saddened head
But I promised you that I will see you
We booked our flight those years ago
I said I loved you as I left you
Regrets no longer in my head
I promised you and now I'm home again
Again, again, I'm home again
Again, again, I'm home again
