Outbound Plane
[Verse 1]
Don't wanna be standin' here
With this ticket for this outbound plane
'Cause I've been here before
But somehow this doesn't feel the same
Talk is cheap, so we could talk all night long
We may never figure out just where our love went wrong

[Chorus]
And I don't wanna be standin' here
And I don't wanna be talkin' here
And I don't really care who's to blame
'Cause if love won't fly on its own free will
It's gonna catch that outbound plane

[Verse 2]
The old folks say love's not forever anymore
Because these young people walk away
From love alone to pace the floor
Young or old, I say that love is still the same
And you may walk away from love
But you won't fall head over heels again

[Chorus]
And I don't wanna be standin' here
And I don't wanna be talkin' here
And I don't really care who's to blame
'Cause if love won't fly on its own free will
It's gonna catch that outbound plane
Two lonely hearts in this airport knowin'
Neither cares where that other heart is goin'
And if love won't fly on its own free will
It's gonna catch that outbound plane
[Verse 3]
That frown you're wearin' is just your halo turned upside down
Where's the laughter we once shared back in the lost and found?
These broken wings are gonna leave me here to stand my ground
And you can have this ticket for that lonely plane that's flyin' out

[Chorus]
Don't wanna be standin' here
And I don't wanna be talkin' here
And I don't really care who's to blame
'Cause if love won't fly on its own free will
It's gonna catch that outbound plane
And if love won't fly on its own free will
It's gonna catch that outbound plane
