[Verse 1: David Dallas]
It's so hard to say goodbye
Pretend I'm yawnin to hide these tears in my eyes
I'm just tired right
It's an early flight
I had a late night packin up
Couple files I was backin up
Guess I'm startin' actin' up
It's tough enough as it is
If I don't go I can't say that I lived
And it'd be impossible to forgive myself
If I don't try to make a better life for us
This biz is all I've got
I wish there was another way
Wishin that this industry was closer to home
Cause every other day I'm startin' guessin myself
Askin if I've really got it
My worst fear is that you'd ever be out of pocket
All I ever wanted to be
Was a breadwinner
Every day I stick around here
My chance gets slimmer
My faith gets thinner
And time is somethin that you can't take with ya
[Chorus: Ruby Frost, David Dallas]
Wish I could take you load
Take you load
It'd be easier to carry this load
Take you load
Take you load
It'd be easier to carry this load
That's my plane
Girl it's boarding now
They just call out my name
So my feelings won't change
But there's just no more
I can do for us
If I was to stay
Pray to God you feel the same
There'll be no tears at the gate
Know that I'll be back again
Pray to God you feel the same
There'll be no tears at the gate
[Verse 2: David Dallas]
If we don't try then we're not alive
But if I've cut the head off then we won't survive
I hope this bonds strong enough to stop the guillotine
Cause I know that you'll be missin all the little things
And so will I
Miss the kiss in the morning
Miss the hug after work
Miss the reassurance talks
The massage when my shoulders hurt
And miss your touch
And there's nothing to replace that
Hope I'll never stupid enough to think I could forsake that
Do something I can't take back
I know you feel the same
I hear that worry in your voice
Just not feel your pain
Promise soon things will all be real again
And we can visit all those places that we name
One thing's for sure is my feelings won't ever change
This ain't simple
But time is something that you can't take with you
[Chorus: Ruby Frost, David Dallas]
Wish I could take you load
Take you load
It'd be easier to carry this load
Take you load
Take you load
It'd be easier to carry this load
That's my plane
Girl it's boarding now
They just call out my name
So my feelings won't change
But there's just no more
I can do for us
If I was to stay
Pray to God you feel the same
There'll be no tears at the gate
Know that I'll be back again
Pray to God you feel the same
There'll be no tears at the gate
[Outro: Ruby Frost]
Ba da da da da ba da da da da da da da
Pray to God you feel the same
There'll be no tears at the gate
Ba da da da da ba da da da da da da da
Know that I'll be back again
Pray to God you Feel the same
There'll be no tears at the gate
