I'll be tracking the plane site to make sure it's a safe flight
You're moving away, and that's fine with me
I say with gritted teeth
It's not gonna change, right?
When you're sleeping on Eastern Time
I haven't been laughing recently
I think you're all I need
If it's EST, is there you and me?
The hands on the clock have never moved so slow
As the hours til you go
How does a flickering black board have the nerve to still say more
Than my emotional vertigo?
I can see your breath is bated
I can sense the weight of "Why?" growing desperate in my ego
Are there seats still on standby?
I can feel my lips are moving
But I don't know what they'll say
Something stupidly ambitious, if this flight just got delayed
Are you fine? Never mind
The bell chimes, that's a sign
You stand up, we lock eyes
Heavy sigh
Is it time for goodbyes?
If it's EST, is there you and me?
If it's EST, is there you and me?
If it's EST, is there you and me?
If it's EST, is there you and me?
I'll be tracking the plane site to make sure it's a safe flight
You're moving away, it's what you need
But it breaks my heart to see
Can we try in the next life?
I felt too much for one lifetime
You're moving away and I'm proud to see
You got your dream of EST
