Jet
© Alicia - August 4, 2002

Funny that I should be willing to let go
Until the day I might have to

Strange that I stand here still in my rut
Begging you in my head only

'Cause maybe I don't want to give you up
Maybe I want to hold on forever

Don't want to say anything outloud
I could use a sign, like sudden telepathy

Maybe it's not change that matters
I just want to know you'll always think of me

I didn't realize I wanted some kind of legend
Or I didn't want to admit it until the right time

The time has come and gone
Somehow I missed it

You're leaving tonight, like some kind of tragic ending
At some point I've already said goodbye.
