I Feel Like Buddy Holly

I watched the planes flying on the early morning flight

But I could not stand to see them land without you

And I'm running through my 45s on another lonely night

And the same old lines going back in time tell me this is nothing new

And I feel like Buddy Holly 'cause it's raining in my heart

All those sad songs take me back to you now that we are apart

And I know how Paul McCartney felt when he got up to say

"I wish it was yesterday"

Well, I sit here playing solitaire, it's a game I know so well

Ever since that day you called to say it's over

And I've made my reservation at the Heartbreak Hotel

Thinking about you, it's no good without you, as only the lonely know

And I feel like Buddy Holly 'cause it's raining in my heart

All those sad songs take me back to you now that we are apart

And I know how Paul Simon felt and the words he found

"I wish I was homeward bound"

And I feel like Buddy Holly 'cause it's raining in my heart

All those sad songs take me back to you now that we are apart

And I know how Paul McCartney felt when he got up to say

"I wish it was yesterday"
