GEvery tear you cry     Gevery doubt you have
Gall of these Cthings will pass Gaway
GAll of your  big mistakes    Gyour little old heart would break
Gwishing that CI would take them Gback
GWrite down the things you don't want,    Fburn them in a Gglass
GWrite down the things you dream of,    
Fmake a paper Dplane that flies to heaven
CAnd buy a Emticket for a Dplane,   and come and see me, Fbaby.
COr drive your Emcar all Dnight,   by just starlight,
to FCanada      That's where I'll be Gwaiting.
GAll of the empty rooms,     GAll of the silent space,
Gevery Cwarm embrace is Gyou.
GNothing is like it was,     there's nGobody here but us,
GI have been Cfilled right up with Gthis
GWrite down the words of sadness,    Fburn them in a Gcup
GWrite down the things you've wanted,    
Fthrow them to the Dwind that's soaring up to heaven
CAnd buy a Emticket for a Dplane,    and come and see me, Fbaby.
COr drive your Emcar all Dnight,    By just starlight, to FCanada
COr  buy a Emticket for a Dplane,   and come and see me, Fbaby
COr drive your Emcar all Dnight,   by just starlight, to FCanada
That's where I'll be Gwaiting.
