[verse 1]
i leave for a living
it’s what we all do
and i say that i’m missing the ones that i’m leaving
and i always do

but another truth is that you
begin again every time you fly
there’s peace in the airport
sitting at a gate by a door to the sky
so it’s hard, but it’s not hard
fumble for your id, credit card

[chorus]
but then i walked on to
but then i walked on to
then i walked on to
an empty plane

[verse 2]
and the girl at the starbucks
looked like she knew me
she poured a design on the foam of my coffee
and she was smiling

i said “it’s funny how life at its best expanse
explodes, and it overspills
but we try to fit it all in a grid
and we say it’s the strength of our will”
and she started laughing
she said “look i made a wing, and another wing”

[chorus]
and then i walked on to
then i walked on to
then i walked on to
an empty plane

[bridge]
i was moving fast now, understanding
so much kindness, no frustration
i asked the screener:
“does my life have a destiny?
or just a destination?”

i thought i’d step away from my traveling
have a little time to connect the dots
see my life like a spiral
the dna of my dreams and thoughts

and i
believed
in a legacy

but i stood in the jet bridge
and the young man nodded
i looked at the name tag
and said “h-llo, angel”

[verse 4]
it was all empty seats now
nothing in the overhead
i sat near the front and i started sleeping
and i woke in my own bed

and i said “oh it’s a dream
but a dream that grows like a vision from a single spark”
and i thanked my dream attendants
and i rose and i dressed in the dark
it was an early one today
yellow cab, jfk
