Lyrics

I missed, I missed, I missed the boat
The story's over, it's all she wrote
I watched, it sail away, got close
So pack it up let's go back home

(So pack it up let's go back home)

I Just won this trip to a far off place
Palm trees, sun on my face
Don't deserve this but what can I say?
I'm gonna go anyway

Threw my bag onto my bed and I packed my things
Gotta pack light but I need sunscreen
Grab my trunks off the shelf I don't need no jeans
I'm gonna go anyway

Car broke down before I got there
I called a cab, I called the rideshare
I showed up just in time to realize

I missed, I missed, I missed the boat
The story's over, it's all she wrote
I watched, it sail away, got close
It's over now so here's a toast
To all the things I should've seen
And to the person I'll never be
And the worst part all along
I never had a ticket after all

I never had a ticket after all

I missed the plane, I showed up, and the gate was closed
Wheels were up by the time I showed
All the flights are cancelled, that's how this goes
Will I just fade away?
This can't be real, I just feel like it's all in my head
I can't understand it, can't comprehend
This movies' not finished, not how this one ends
I'm not gonna fade away

A moment more, I almost made it
I got so close I could almost taste it
Showed up just in time for my real life

I missed, I missed, I missed the boat
The story's over, it's all she wrote
I watched, it sail away, got close
It's over now so here's a toast
To all the things I should've seen
And to the person I'll never be
And the worst part all along
I never had a ticket after all

I never had a ticket after all

Now I find myself at the edge of the world
Staring out at the deep blue water
Should I just jump in, it's too far to swim
And still The boat is getting farther

If I just let go and let the undertow
Drag me down and pull me under
My last breath of air, my last moment here
The last time I'll ever wonder

Now I find myself at the edge of the world
Staring out at the deep blue water
Should I just jump in, it's too far to swim
And still The boat is getting farther

If I just let go and let the undertow
Drag me down and pull me under
My last breath of air, my last moment here
The last time I'll ever wonder
The last time I'll ever wonder

I missed, I missed, I missed the boat
The story's over, it's all she wrote
I watched, it sail away, got close
It's over now so here's a toast
I missed, I missed, I missed the boat
I missed the plane, the gate was closed
I missed, I missed, all tickets sold
The last time I'll ever wonder
So pack it up let's go back home
And now I stand here in the rain
I'm soaking wet, couldn't catch the train
And the worst part all along
I never had a ticket after all

And the worst part all along
I never had a ticket after all

(I never had a ticket after all)
