One Way Ticket

One Way Ticket

I don't pride myself on being a songwriter or a singer. But here is my attempt. I only uploaded it because I wanted my friend in another state to hear it and this is the only way i knew to do it. But after i listened i realized it was difficult to understand the words. So here they are, you may need to read along.


"One Way Ticket" by Chris Ulery

I just got the call today that I always knew would come one day. To hear you say that you're leaving.
And you know how people always say that you will forget one day? Well, I don't really believe them.
Tell me can the heart forget what the term forever meant? What of all that was sacred?
I guess some things we'll never know, just gotta let go. I don't always understand.

But I know we'll be ok. Just moving on to brighter days. And I'll have. . .

Better luck next time but now I gotta let you go cuz darlin' you're on your way.
To a bright sunrise with clear blue skies where they'll be no more pain.
It's been a long hard road away from home, so I was happy to hear you say,
That you got a one way ticket going home.

There's no need to worry for me, I've found everything that I need. He's always been faithful.
He holds the pieces of my heart, every corner, every part. I think it's time I start trusting again.

And I know we'll be ok. Just moving on to brighter days, And I'll have. . .

Better luck next time but now I gotta let you go cuz darlin' you're on your way.
To a bright sunrise with clear blue skies where they'll be no more pain.
It's been a long hard road away from home, so I was happy to hear you say,
That you got a one way ticket going home.
