Just a couple weeks before july, we stood as we awaited the rest of our lives The changing weather in the sky, set the tone for the wonders we were to find Brand new friends and experiences, paved the path to realizing there was more to this Small stretch of land we had always known, and just as we saw its beauty it was time to go
Pre Chorus: And its days like these where my mind goes back, wishing we appreciated sooner what we had
Chorus: Miles and miles from yesterday when the sun gleamed across a place So far away, and it plays in the proximity of my mind Summer breeze I can’t escape, haunts me in these winter days Although I’m blessed for the opportunities that’ve come my way I wish I could escape, before the autumn days transitioned to a brand New place
Verse 2: Different people all around, never thought it’d be so different a few states down There’s nights I cherish, sparkling memories in this town, but the morning sun only shows loneliness found Funny how just when you planned out what you want, the world’s powers set afire what you thought Always thought leaving would pave the right path for me, never imagined I’d miss those cold small town streets (Pre Chorus + Chorus)
Oh Deep down I know exploring the outside world, led me to places with so much more Perhaps if I never leapt for that chance, I wouldn’t have acquired all that I now know (Chorus)
