I've been standin' in line |
|
At Terminal 9 |
|
I'm leavin' here today |
|
I'll be rising above the land |
|
And I hope you'll understand |
|
Why it had to end this way |
|
A wave of sadness washes me away |
|
Avalon, take me far across the bay |
|
I wish there was time for watching the tide |
|
But I've been racing with the wind |
|
I've been put on this stage |
|
And the passing parade won't stop to let me by |
|
A wave of sadness washes over me |
|
Avalon, there beyond the deep blue sea |
|
Al the people I've known |
|
These upholstered memories |
|
I'm leaving them behind |
|
But the stories to tell |
|
Of the bright stars that fell |
|
I'll be joining them there |
|
A wave of sadness washes me away |
|
Avalon, take me far across the bay |
