Another Year

As I board a no-frills plane, confidence starts to wane Hands tighten on the rests when the engine makes a test And when the wheels tuck under, my heart is louder than thunder Above is relentless blue sky, below trees capped with snow And as I race through the sky I wonder, at 500 miles an hour Will it be worth the pain? What if my heart breaks up again? We blink and before we know it, another year goes Another year will lead us back here, in another year we won't be alone And when we finally land, can't feel my fingers or my toes And I don't know if I will have the courage to say "hello" We blink and before we know it, another year goes Another year will lead us back here, in another year we won't be alone And I've been staring at you so long, my tea's gone cold And I can recognise these scars for what they are We blink and before we know it, another year goes Another year will lead us back here, in another year we won't be alone.
