Andy Plews - Return Ticket Lyrics

And did it ever cross your mind
You'd never use that return ticket
And did no one ever warn you
You might never find your way back home
So there you were standing by the last bend
Flag in hand waiting for the race to be run
And when that final check came due
You had no choice but to sign and pay...... Emily
And the kings and queens, the dukes and the earls
Hid their smiles behind tears
A battle won, a battle lost
As storm clouds gathered
And all the coming struggle, and the turmoil and the pain
You left that all behind
For a quiet corner, of a green field in a small town
That's your return ticket..... Emily
