Outbound Plane Lyrics - From A Distance - Nanci Griffith

Don't wanna be standing here 

With this ticket for this outbound plane 

Oh, I've been here before 

Somehow this doesn't feel the same 

Talk is cheap 

So we could talk all night long 

We may never figure out just 

Where your love went wrong 

'Cuz I don't wanna be standin' here 

Don't wanna be talkin' here 

And I don't really care who's to blame 

'Cuz if love won't fly on it's own 

Free will 

It's gonna catch that outbound plane 

The old folks say 

That 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'll fall head and heels again 

'Cuz I don't wanna be standin' here 

Don't wanna be talkin' here 

And I don't really care who's to blame 

'Cuz if love won't fly on it's own 

Free will 

It's gonna catch that outbound plane 

Two lonely hearts in this airport 

Knowing 

Neither cares where that other 

Heart is going 

But, if love won't fly on it's own 

Free will it's gonna catch that 

Outbound plane 

That frown you're wearing's 

Just you're halo turned upside down 

Where is 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 flying out 

'Cuz I don't wanna be standin' here 

Don't wanna be talkin' here 

And I don't really care who's to blame 

'Cuz if love won't fly on it's own 

Free will 

It's gonna catch that outbound plane 

'Cuz if love won't fly on it's own 

Free will 

It's gonna catch that outbound plane
