every tear you cry
every doubt you have
all of these things will pass away
all of your big mistakes
your little old heart would break
i´m wishing that i could take them back
write down the things you don´t want
burn them in a glass
write down the things you dream of
make a paper plane that flies to heaven

and buy a ticket for a plane and come and see me baby
or drive your car all night by just starlight to canada
that´s where i´ll be
waiting

all of the empty rooms
all of the silent space
every warm embrace is you
nothing is like it was
there´s nobody here but us
i have been filled right up with this
write down the words of sadness
burn them in a cup
write down the things you´ve wanted
throw them to the wind that´s soaring up to heaven

and buy a ticket for a plane and come and see me baby
or drive your car all night by just starlight
to canada
oh buy a ticket for a plane and come and see me baby
or drive your car all night by just starlight
to canada
that´s where i´ll be
waiting
waiting
