Lyrics
I watched the planes come in
I observed the arrival of airplanes
on the early morning flights
During the early morning flights
But I could not stand to see them land without you
But I couldn't bear to witness them landing without you
Now I'm thumbing through my fortyfives on another endless night And the same old lines going back in time
Now I'm going through my collection of forty-fives on another endless night, reminiscing with the same old lines from the past
Tell me this is nothing new
Tell me that this situation is not unique or unusual
Well I feel like Buddy Holly
Expressing a feeling of resemblance to Buddy Holly
'cause it's raining in my heart
Because there's a sense of sadness in my heart
All the sad songs take me back to you
All the melancholic songs bring me back to memories of you
now that we are apart
Now that we are separated
Now I know how Paul McCartney felt when he got up to say I wish it was yesterday
Understanding the emotions that Paul McCartney experienced when he wished to go back to the past
So I sit here playing Solitaire
Sitting alone and playing the game of Solitaire
Thats's a game I know so well
A game that is familiar and known well
Ever since that day you called to say it's over
Since the day you conveyed that our relationship was over
Now I've made my resignation at the Heartbreak Hotel While I'm living without you
Resigning myself to the Heartbreak Hotel, living without you
I'm thinking about you
Contemplating thoughts of you
Like only the lonely do
Similar to how lonely people often do
Well I feel like Buddy Holly
Reiterating the feeling of being like Buddy Holly
'cause it's raining in my heart
Due to the prevailing sadness in the heart
All the sad songs take me back to you
Reflecting on the impact of sad songs that bring back memories of the past
now that we are apart
Now that we are no longer together
Now I know what Paul Simon meant by the words he found I wish I was homeward bound
Understanding the sentiment expressed by Paul Simon about longing to return home
Well I feel like Buddy Holly
Reiterating the feeling of similarity to Buddy Holly
'cause it's raining in my heart
Because there's a sense of sadness in the heart
All the sad songs take me back to you
Reflecting on the impact of sad songs that bring back memories of the past
now that we are apart
Now that we are no longer together
Now I know how Paul McCartney felt when he got up to say I wish it was yesterday
Understanding the emotions that Paul McCartney experienced when he wished to go back to the past
I wish it was yesterday
Expressing a desire for the return of yesterday
I wish it was yesterday
Repeating the wish for it to be yesterday
