And I was watching you from the observation deck   Until your plane became a shiny speck   And if I wanted to sentimentalise   I'd say the planes drew kisses across the sky   So now, you're airborne   But I could have sworn   That you'd be here forever   That wasn't so clever   The vapour trail's dissipating fast   I guess some things aren't made to last   And I might be feeling quite morose   But now I'm wondering if we ever got close   Your plane keeps shrinking   I stand here thinking   Just how did I get this far   Without guessing what you are?   You just packed up all your stuff   And said that you'd had enough   But, really, you just flew away the moment things here got tough   And all the problems we had   Didn't really make you that sad   You just never worked out how to take the good with the bad
