I said, "I tried to change my ticket, but I couldn't get a flight"
Oh, I was hollering with the operator, I almost caused a fight
Would have done it in a minute
Would have stayed another night with you, with you
So I'll leave here in the morning
But I'll leave behind my heart
I won't be grieving, won't be mourning
Even as my plane departs
'Cause I'll be back with you, Darling, soon
And I won't be apart from you, from you
She turns and then she moves over
She leans in and she pulls me closer
And she whispers this in my ear
Hold me in your arms again
Even though you've gotta go in a little
I know that it's not the end
But when you go, it leaves a hole in the middle
In my heart and in my chest
All I've got is one last request
Hold me in your arms again
Even though you've gotta go in a little
She said, "No need to change your ticket
Oh, I know that you would stay here if you could
I know it would be nice, don't worry, it's OK
I understand, I get it that you have to go away, I do, I do"
And when you leave here in the morning
And you'll leave with me, your heart
I'll give you mine, it will be fine, just know as you depart
I'll be there with you, Darling, we don't have to be apart, it's true, it's true
She turns and then she moves over
She leans in and she pulls me closer
And she whispers this in my ear
Hold me in your arms again
Even though you've gotta go in a little
I know that it's not the end
But when you go, it leaves a hole in the middle
In my heart and in my chest
All I've got is one last request
Hold me in your arms again
Even though you've gotta go in a little
Oh-oh-oh
Gotta go in a little
Oh-oh-oh
Gotta go in a little
In my heart and in my chest
All I've got is one last request
Hold me in your arms again
Even though you've gotta go in a little
