Lyrics

As I leave tomorrow I'll say goodbye to you

Saying farewell to someone as I depart tomorrow.

And I’ll pack my things but I’ll leave my best with you

Packing my belongings, leaving my best memories or essence with you.

I fell in love with the way you are

Falling in love with your inherent qualities and characteristics.

I could tell you now as I’m leaving town but I don’t know what I'm waiting for

Uncertainty about confessing my feelings before leaving; hesitation and waiting.

We were just kids

Reflecting on the past when we were young.

I was in love

Experiencing love during our youth.

You never knew that's how it was

You were unaware of my feelings at that time.

Cause I couldn't find a way to tell you

Difficulty in expressing my emotions to you.

I want to be here with you

Expressing a desire to stay with you.

I wanna do what lovers do

Wishing to engage in activities typical of romantic partners.

I’m boarding now

Boarding a transportation vehicle at the specified time.

It's 5:02

The time on the clock indicating departure.

I realise what I've gotta do

Realization of what needs to be done.

I’ll face the music, did i miss my chance with you

Facing consequences and contemplating missed opportunities with you.

I’m flying out but you need to hear the truth

Departing, but emphasizing the importance of honesty.

It’s all a matter of wasted time

Reflecting on time wasted or poorly spent.

There's so much to say, give me one more night

Desire for one more night to express unspoken sentiments.

Now I'm ready to make you mine

Feeling prepared to commit and make the person mine.

We were just kids

Recalling the past when we were young.

I was in love

Experiencing love during our youth.

You never knew that's how it was

You were unaware of my feelings at that time.

Cause I couldn't find a way to tell you

Difficulty in expressing my emotions to you.

I want to be here with you

Expressing a desire to stay with you.

I wanna do what lovers do

Wishing to engage in activities typical of romantic partners.

I’m boarding now

Boarding a transportation vehicle at the specified time.

It's 5:02

The time on the clock indicating departure.

I realise what I've gotta do

Realization of what needs to be done.

It’s been a while since I left now but I can't get you out of my head

Struggling to forget you despite the time that has passed since I left.

And I've tried moving on here but I still think about when you said

Attempts to move on, but still haunted by your words expressing longing.

I'll miss you, come back soon

Expressing regret about the delay in understanding what must be done.

It’s too late but I know now what I've gotta do

Recognition of the belated realization of necessary actions.
