Lyrics:

[spoiler:c090301ecb]
All my bags are packed, and I'm ready to go (Jack)
I'm waiting here outside the door (Kate)
I hate to wake you up (Locke)
To say goodbye (Sawyer)
But the dawn is breaking; it's early morn (Claire)
The taxi's waiting; he's blowing his horn (Hurley)
Already I'm so lonesome (Desmond)
I could die (Sayid)
Oh, kiss me and smile for me (Sun)
Tell me that you'll wait for me (Jin)
Hold me like you'll never let me (Richard)
You'll never let me go (Ben)
'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane (Frank)
Don't know when I'll be back again (Ilana)
Oh babe, I hate to go... yeah

Ooh this was fab Kate!!! The sped up clips really worked just great with the music. The text effect you used was awesome and really fit with the music too! Brilliant, brilliant job! I can really see your vidding improving with each one you make, fantastic work!!

[thefilmchick]

Hee. Thanks, Emma! Glad it worked well!

Awesome, punked-out credits! I loved the start of this vid the most and the scenes you used to define each characters were great; Illana eating and Sayid falling from a gun wound with the music ended for that split second! Very creative

[thefilmchick]

Glad you liked it too, Serena! Yeah, I tried to pick lyrically fitting and character-defining clips, anyway; thanks for the observation.

YAY it's up! You know I love it, great work with the beat & the lyrics! Nice font.

[thefilmchick]

Thanks, Heather! Your enthusiasm is appreciated, haha. And thanks as well--both for betaing it and for giving me the idea, with 'Invincible,' to try my hand at doing a credits video myself.

(I love fonts.)

Haha. Glad you liked it, Kat! And yeah, there was so much banging drum noise at the end that I figured the credits should be synched to it anyway (especially since the drumbeats had to be somewhat subtle in the credits themselves, otherwise you wouldn't see the names or the people.)

WOOT! That was awesome, Kate! Your beat use keeps getting better and better, and this song was hilariously perfect! Gold from me!

[thefilmchick]

Hah, thanks, Julia. Glad you liked it, and got the humor in a lot of the lines. As Heather can confirm, I'd been debating about doing it in alphabetical order, versus in the way that amused me as far as the lyrics were concerned--and decided to go for the latter. I hope/think I made the right choice!
