I won't try to argue now Anyway I feel there's nothing I could say To ease your mind Maybe there's nothing exciting outside But 'round here I'm just wasting my time Spinning 'round on nothing new When I close my eyes I remember that kiss I'd rather keep them wide open And if I miss that train do you really think That even here, I'd be closer to you
So here I am leaving soon and I'm standing at gate 22 'Cause whatever you may think I forgot You know I'm still thinking about it Sometimes I wish I could stay But no matter where I go, no matter how long You know I'll keep hanging on. Sweet memories I'm leaving but my mind will surely stay At gate 22
There's too many dreams I must chase down Though sometimes I bite off more than I can chew I know you'd like to keep me near I know it's easier to be two But I can't plan my life all around you I'm weaker than I'll let you know So don't ask me to jump this wall From here it looks too tall Two people kissing goodbye facing a door A classic picture we’re all tired of
So here I am leaving soon and I'm standing at gate 22 'Cause whatever you may think I forgot You know I'm still thinking about it Sometimes I wish I could stay But no matter where I go, no matter how long You know I'll keep hanging on. Sweet memories I'm leaving but my mind will surely stay
And I already see the picture of that day When you'll say you'll wait for me And I'll pretend just then to believe you I'll send you postcards for a few weeks and then Another perfect moment at the wrong time But the timing is always wrong
Here I am leaving soon and I'm standing at gate 22 'Cause whatever you may think I forgot You know I'm still thinking about it Sometimes I wish I could stay But no matter where I go, no matter how long You know I'll keep hanging on. Sweet memories I'm leaving but my mind will surely stay At gate 22
