When I step on board that big jet plane
I'll be leaving our love behind
I hope it's wings will carry me somewhere
I can mend this heart of mine.

Chorus:
So don't follow me, don't follow me
I'm bound to a place I can't recall
I feel the big jet slice through midnight skies
I'll search for the answers alone
And wait for the time to go home.

Hear the wind outside, blowin' loud and strong
Hear the mighty engines moan
I'll be far from here when the sun comes up
With a love that has grown.

Chorus:
So don't follow me, don't follow me
I'm bound to a place I can't recall
I feel the big jet slice through midnight skies
I'll search for the answers alone
And wait for the time to go home.

I feel the wheels touch down as I awake
From a dream I've had of you
I hope a better day will find us soon
The love that we thought to be true.

Chorus:
So don't follow me, don't follow me
I'm bound to a place I can't recall
I feel the big jet slice through midnight skies
I'll search for the answers alone
And wait for the time to go home
