I will not go down
On the feast of Stephen
I will not sail away
On the Rights of Man
Never saw the sun
When I was leaving
I’m sure it smiles on you all
Now and then

Chorus: Tender is the night upon your pillow
Tender is the light above our door
Tender is the night upon this airplane
Tender is the hope of coming home

Every traveller has a self deception
You know every sailor longs for time on shore
Leaving is a feeling that I hate but
Homesick is a longing I get more and more

Chorus

How many times
Have I say in this airport
Waiting for the miracle to fly?
I say I go away
To make our lives better
Pretty sure here is where life’s passing me by
Oh here me cry:

Chorus
