Текст песни Departures - Grace Petrie

Another morning that you're stirring at the crack of dawn
I lie there doing nothing flinching when the light comes on
And you're checking things against a
List to make sure nothing has been missed
Your passport and your boarding pass
You always leave them out 'till last

And I'm puffy eyed and I'm not much use
But you manage to be patient as you pass me my shoes

Another morning that we're rushing out into the car
The day will come when we leave in enough time but its not so far
So in the midst of all of this i forget to steal a kiss
To hold your hand and tell you "you
Don't understand how you'll be missed"

So i hang around 'till you've checked your bags
You wont get rid of me 'till security

But you'll hold your dreams with mine
And i'll hold yours too because
I will take my chances on your wood shoe dances
'Cause Nothing makes sense the way this does
It's the life we have chosen it's the life that has chosen us

So take car darling then and let me know you land okay
I'll head back home and watch my phone until i know you got there safe
And we'll steal a moment now and then to hear each other's voice again
Adding up the hours ahead to talk before we go to bed

It's the same old words for the same old love
That never quite feel big enough

But we'll do the best we can
With faces on a screen
But it's more gigantic than the whole Atlantic
And any other ocean in between

Not the love I have chosen but the love that has chosen me

So i'll keep the home fires burning darling, waiting for your return
Soon enough the time will come to pack my bags and take my turn
But no amount of sky and water stands between the bricks and mortar
Where my true love's flesh and bones that will always be my home

And we'll make our own mistakes
Just like ev'ryone does
You can take your chances I don't have the answers
But we'll work it out as we go on because
It's the love we have chosen it's the love that has chosen us
It's the love we have chosen it's the love that has chosen us

So just let me know when you land okay
