Panama Lyrics

She walked in her room and saw

The girl she met in Panama

Left a letter on her bed

She knew the time would have to come

Her heart was beating like a drum

She read the letter in her cold hands

And missed the girl

She saw just days ago

The sky was gray and dark again

As the girl in black

Walked to her plane

She left a letter on the bed

Of the girl she saw

Just days ago

Because she knew they would never work

And she knew it would never work

How could she tell her parents

She just knew it would never work

She sat down on her bed

Hanging on by a thread

To the memories attached to the letter

Her tears were welling up again as she read the note

Written by a lover

And she knew it would never work

And she knew they would never work

How could she tell her parents

She just knew it would never work

And the plane took off

Carrying all the memories

In the cargo hold stored below

And right by the fake smile, she held back tears for a little while more

While a letter stabbed a heart with a thousand little paper cuts

And her soul cried out to the girl in black

Who cried on her plane

To Panama

Oh to Panama

Oh to Panama

And when the plane touched down

She was greeted by

A thousand grey hugs

A thousand fake smiles in return

A thousand tears cried for the girl

With the letter in her hands

Back home

To Panama

Oh Panama

Shes stuck in

Panama
