“Terminal“ is the debut single of British-American singer-songwriter Rupert Holmes, released in 1974. The song is included on his 1974 debut album, Widescreen on Epic Records. The orchestrations on the recording were written and conducted by Holmes. The album was produced by Jeffrey Lesser.
“Terminal“ is popular in the Philippines, and has subsequently been covered by Sharon Cuneta on the 2006 album Isn’t It Romantic?, and Piolo Pascual on the 2009 album Decades.
In Cuneta’s version, its lyrics are delivered from a female point of view; the line “I had to get home to the kids and the wife“ was changed to “I had to get back to the kids and my life“.
A married family man “working for a computer“ on Wall Street meets a woman at a bus terminal, and the two have a one-day fling in which he calls in sick from work. His lust for life awakened by the fling, he considers ending his current life and chasing her, but he decides against it and returns to his mundane life that afternoon.
Some time later, he returns to the terminal, reminiscing while realizing he will almost certainly never see her again and regretting his decision. He describes his transition back to normal life as a terminal illness, as if he is “living dead.“
