[Verse 1] Your passport's on the kitchen chair One blue sock by the bedroom door The kettle's screaming, morning's late And your suitcase won't close anymore You wrote my name across the page Then crossed it out and wrote it twice The taxi's waiting by the curb The meter's running like a warning light [Pre-Chorus] You can leave the coffee, leave the key Leave every almost where it used to be [Chorus] Catch the plane, catch the plane Before the runway turns to rain Take the seat beside the window Watch this little life grow small again Catch the plane, don't hesitate Some doors only open once that way If you're going, go completely Don't look back until you're airborne [Verse 2] The driver checks the rearview glass You hold your breath at every red A child is sleeping in the car With a paper crown around her head The terminal is miles ahead Your phone keeps lighting up your hand But every message says the same: Come home, come home, come home if you can [Pre-Chorus] You can lose the map, you can lose the street But you can't outrun what you came to meet [Chorus] Catch the plane, catch the plane Before the runway turns to rain Take the seat beside the window Watch this little life grow small again Catch the plane, don't hesitate Some doors only open once that way If you're going, go completely Don't look back until you're airborne [Bridge] At gate seventeen, the final call Your shadow stretches down the hall You hear your name, you hear your heart You hear the sound of starting over No grand goodbye, no perfect sign Just two green lights and borrowed time The doors are closing, choose your side Step through the fear and let it fly [Final Chorus] Catch the plane, catch the plane Let the old road keep its name Take the seat beside the window Feel the ground release you from the frame Catch the plane, don't hesitate Some lives begin a mile away If you're going, go completely Don't look back until you're airborne [Outro] Your passport's in your shaking hand The clouds are breaking over land Catch the plane Catch the plane
