I listed myself on the last plane out
Guess I'm keeping hope alive
I'm checking my phone every 5 seconds for calls

But no new messages, no emails at all
I know you wanna tell me take back what you said
I know the way it came out wasn't meant to be felt this way


8 hours from now I will be far away
Too far away for you to make up your mind

8 hours from now I'm in another place in time
8 hours away, oh ooh


Caught in a traffic jam with a smile on my face
Cause maybe time ain't on my side
Left her a message I'll be at gate 5, 5, 5

Will she be there that's the only question in my mind
Cause I know you wanna tell me she takes back what she said


I know the way it came out wasn't meant to come out the way it sounded

8 hours from now I will be far away

Too far away for you to make up your mind
8 hours from now I'm in another place in time
8 hours away, oh ooh


Checking in a boarding plane
Still no message on my phone

Stack my bag, I take my seat
Still no sight of her to see
I wonder was she ever mine to begin with, to begin with

Oh oh oh

But 8 hours from now I will be far away

Too far away for you to make up your mind
8 hours from now I'm in another place in time
8 hours away, oh ooh
