Airport Song (Behind The Song)

August 20, 2018

Whether it’s for a few days or a few months, saying goodbye to someone you love is hard. One of the worst parts is that sinking feeling that the time apart is never going to end. It’s a feeling that follows you home from the airport and clings to you like an itchy sweater. “Airport Song” is about the pain of knowing you will be apart and the anticipation of being together again.

Notes
* This song was written after dropping my wife off at the airport for a month-long trip.
* The “I’ll be counting down the days,” line from chorus was based on my actual countdown during that month.
