The Gate - David Dallas, Ruby Frost

It’s so hard to say goodbye, pretend I’m yawning to hide these tears in my eyes

I’m just tired right

Its an early flight I had a late night packing up, couple files I was backing up

Let’s not start acting up, it’s tough enough as it is

If I don’t go I can’t say that I lived and it’d be impossible to forgive

Myself if I don’t try to make a better life for us

This biz is all I’ve got

I wish there was another way

Wishing that this industry was closer to home

'cause every other day I’m second guessing myself

Asking if I’ve really got it

My worst fear is that you’d ever be out of pocket

All I ever wanted to be was a bread-winner

Every day I stick around here my chance gets slimmer

My faith gets thinner

And time is something that you can’t take with you

Wish I could take you though, take you though

It’d be easier to carry this load

Take you though, take you though

It’d be easier to carry this load

That’s my plane

Girl it’s boarding now they just called out my name

So my feelings won’t change

But there’s just no more I can do for us if I was to stay

Pray to god you feel the same

There’ll be no tears at the gate

Know that I’ll be back again

Pray to god you feel the same

There’ll be no tears at the gate

If we don’t try then we’re not alive

But if I’ve cut the head off then we won’t survive

I hope this bond’s strong enough to stop a guillotine

'cause I know that you’ll be missing all the little things

And so will I

Miss the kiss in the morning

Miss the hug after work

Miss the reassuring talks

The massage when my shoulders hurt

And miss your touch

And there’s nothing to replace that

Hope I’m never stupid enough to think i could forsake that

Do something I can’t take back

I know you feel the same

I hear that worry in your voice just not feel your pain

Promise soon things will all be real again

And we can visit all those places that we name

One thing’s for sure is my feelings won’t ever change

This ain’t simple

But time is something that you can’t take with you

Wish I could take you though, take you though

It’d be easier to carry this load

Take you though, take you though

It’d be easier to carry this load

That’s my plane

Girl it’s boarding now they just called out my name

So my feelings won’t change

But there’s just no more I can do for us if I was to stay

Pray to god you feel the same

There’ll be no tears at the gate

Know that I’ll be back again

Pray to god you feel the same

There’ll be no tears at the gate

(Ba da da da da ba da da da da da da da)

Pray to god you feel the same

There’ll be no tears at the gate

(Ba da da da da ba da da da da da da da)

Know that I’ll be back again

Pray to god you feel the same

There’ll be no tears at the gate
