Woke up at 5am
Just to have a few more hours to spend
Watching the sunrise
That was the first time that I cried
Cuz I knew soon as I saw the sun
This day would soon be done
And you'd be on your way
On a plane across the world
And I'd be on my own again
Crying at the airport by myself

We pack up our things to go
Both of us moving so slow
To leave the hotel room
It's all happening too soon
So I stop
To look you in the eyes
As if this is the last time that we’ll ever be
Together in a place like this
I give you one last kiss
Before I'm crying at the airport by myself

Watching the world pass us by
I can't help but check the time
It keeps getting away
Now there’s nothing left to say
So I put your hand in mine
And try not to acknowledge the reality
You won't be coming home with me
And I'll be on my own again
Crying at the airport by myself

Now I'm bracing for the pain
Try to memorize your face
Look back at me one last time
Before you walk away
And leave me standing all alone
Crying at the airport by myself
