There is nothing I can say to change your mind
And I am tired of fighting all the time
With my last heavy breath I bid farewell
Darling, I have spent a lifetime trying to hold you up
Calling when you're needing something
Asking me to crawl

I will let you down
So you say you're leaving for peace of mind
And you want my blessing
I will let you down
When you're looking for me when you fall apart
To mend your pieces

There was always something I've done wrong
We can put it all aside before you go
Take the good with the bad and carry on
Darling, I have spent a lifetime trying to hold you up
Calling when you're needing something
Asking me to crawl

And I will let you down
I will let you down
I will let you down

We watched the landing planes
Betting on which one's yours
Which one will take you far
Far away from New York

We watched the landing planes
Betting on which one's yours
Which one will take you far
Far away from New York

We watched the landing planes
(So you say you're leaving)
Betting on which one's yours
(For peace of mind)
Which one will take you far
(And you want my blessing)
Far away from New York
(I will let you down)

We watched the landing planes
(When you're looking for me)
Betting on which one's yours
(When you fall apart)
Which one will take you far
(To mend your pieces)
Far away from New York

(I will let you down)
We watched the landing planes
(I will let you down)
Betting on which one's yours
(I will let you down)
Which one will take you far
Far away from New York

(I will let you down)
We watched the landing planes
Betting on which one's yours
Which one will take you far
Far away from New York
