Lyrics
When all your answers have been questioned
& tiny vices have turned to obsessions.
Just drop your baggage on the tarmack;
There's nothing you're leaving you'll ever want back,
Believe me.
What is the purpose of your visit?
Half of what you had is gone forever
& all the rest has finally lost its flavor.
Just drop your baggage on the tarmack;
There's a big sky reaching above the oil tracks.
Why keep it on the sly
When you're so lonesome you could lie?
(You won't need nothing that you're leaving.)
Why keep it on the sly
When all you wanna do is fly?
So what is the purpose of your visit?
Just drop your baggage on the tarmack;
There's nothing you're leaving you'll ever want back.
Why keep it on the sly
When you're so lonesome you could lie?
(You won't need nothing that you're leaving.)
Why keep it on the sly
When all you wanna do is fly?
('Cause you're so tired of getting evem.)
Why keep it on the sly
When you're so lonesome you could lie?
(You won't need nothing that you're leaving.)
Why keep it on the sly
When all you wanna do is fly?
What is the purpose of your visit?
So what is the purpose of your visit?
So what is the purpose of your visit?
