miles apart

Let's not try to make this any more difficult than it has to be, goodbyes without anything as small as a kiss on the cheek.  Can't stand to turn my back to you, wondering if you'll forget or watch me go.  Mind is spinning but it feels alright, until I leave the ground and the tears well up in the corners of my eyes and I wonder to myself what I've gotten into this time around.  Cool breeze in your passenger's seat, feeling less than adequate but I suppose you believe that I'll do - at least for the time being.  I could stare at you all day, you're so fucking beautiful.  Grab my bags, wipe my eyes, I'm off to the next grand adventure.  You're not a part of the past, I want to keep you in my pocket and retrieve you in the future.  Will you let me?  Can I hold on to this for as long as possible without sounding crazy, without making you feel distant, without driving myself insane?  God damn this is difficult.
