San Francisco

Choking on the thought of leaving, drinking to keep from sobbing
4pm, 4 dollar pints, SFO, the time and price

With all my happiness aborted, the PA painfully starts boarding
I sink deep 30, 000 feet into my window seat, electric chair

And I was drinking you goodbye, a heart floats in the bay
From sour home Chicago, I hear it beating far away
There's no telling what I'll do, if I don't return to you

Hopeful thoughts of soon returning, can't put out my stomach burning
Plastic wings and plastic smiles, unsalted peanuts stretch my miles

Choking on the thought of leaving, drinking to keep from heaving
5pm, 5 dollar pints, Hell bound Airlines, time and price

And I was drinking you goodbye, a heart floats in the bay
From sour home Chicago, I hear it beating far away
There's no telling what I'll do, if I don't return to you

I was drinking you goodbye, a heart floats in the bay
From sour home Chicago, I hear it beating far away
There's no telling what I'll do, if I don't return to you
