It's raining in Ottawa
But Vancouver's fine
I heard it from the weatherman
Late last night
I got me a city map
And found where you live
I've pinned up your photograph
And I'd give
Anything to understand
Why I'm still in pain
Here I am at my windowsill
Weeping again
'Cause when I hear an aeroplane
I prick up my ears
I'm crying like a child again
'Cause I still hear
The words that you left with me
'Darling come visit me'
And then I'm on that plane
And I'm gone gone
I just climb on that plane
And I'm gone gone
Put my mind on that plane
And I'm gone
The money ain't coming in
There's no work at all
Feel I'll never see the summertime
After the fall
I hold on to your memory
And just try to live
My life with what's left to me
And I'd give
Anything to understand
Why I can't forget
Listening to that rising roar
And watching that jet
Fly away
'Cause when I hear an aeroplane
I prick up my ears
I'm crying like a child again
'Cause I still hear
The words that you left with me
'Darling come visit me'
And then I'm on that plane
And I'm gone gone
I just climb on that plane
And I'm gone gone
Put my mind on that plane
And I'm gone
