A girl cries out
A little louder than she needed to
She hasn't seen her dad in quite awhile
A finger-painting she made just for him
Oh she's been waiting
She doesn't care just where he's been
She just wants him home

At a terminal
We're all waiting at a terminal
It's been so long since I've held you close
So meet me here at a terminal
At a terminal, oh

A wedding ring
She's slowly thinking it don't mean a thing
She says, if he loved me he wouldn't choose her over me
Mom and dad aren't coming home
She cries out give me a place I know
Familiar faces
As she runs into their arms
They just want her home

At a terminal
We're all waiting at a terminal
It's been so long since I've held you close
So meet me here at a terminal
At a terminal
Love is kind but it don't play by rules
I'm waiting here cause I wanted to
So meet me here at a terminal
At a terminal, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Come here beside me
You've been gone for quite awhile
Why don't we see
Where we go
Where we go

At a terminal
We're all waiting at a terminal
It's been so long since I've held you close
So meet me here at a terminal
At a terminal
Love is kind but it don't play by rules
I'm waiting here cause I wanted to
So meet me here at a terminal
At a terminal, oh

Oh, oh, oh
