What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I stand on the tallest building
2
And stare down at the grey runway
3
And the tail-smoke of the Boeing jet
4
That's taking you so far away.
5
Believe me, I don't want you to leave me;
6
Look in my eyes and you'll see them
7
Filled with pain.
8
Imagine just how sad I'll be
9
In some future day when I turn
10
And no longer see your face.
11
All I can now cry is goodbye, love, goodbye.
12
In a week, in a month, in a year,
13
In a lifetime how I'll feel none can tell.
14
All I know is now you're going
15
There's really no-one here to help.
16
Believe me.
17
Already it's too late, you're through the boarding-gate
18
And walking on the tarmac.
19
Already you are free, already you've left me
20
And cannot bear to look back,
21
Can you?
22
A brief taxi on the runway,
23
Then up into the stilling night sky;
24
And I'm standing on the observation tower,
25
My eyes too dimmed by distance to cry.
26
Believe me.
27
All I can now do is walk away alone,
28
Without you.
