lyrics
Before I leave tonight
From the comfort of my sheets
And walk along
The open road that’s beckoning
It calls to me
“The years will come and pass you by so quickly”
I’ll say my goodbyes
To the people that I wish could stay
In my life
One last touch before we fade
I’ll whisper to you
That I wish this wouldn’t be so hard to believe
I’ll waste a day
To sit alone of empty stairs
And contemplate
About the life that’s easing in
I’ll cover my couch
With an old sheet and I’ll close the door behind me
The ground beneath our feet is spent
But I will keep my roots instead
I know you're scared
When there's a darkness you can't see
But I'll be there
To hold you tightly, close to me
So we can go
And let our plans begin so our lives can start again
The ground beneath our feet is spent
But I will keep my roots instead
And find a place to rest my head
So we can start again
We can start again
From the comfort of my sheets
And walk along
The open road that’s beckoning
It calls to me
“The years will come and pass you by so quickly”
I’ll say my goodbyes
To the people that I wish could stay
In my life
One last touch before we fade
I’ll whisper to you
That I wish this wouldn’t be so hard to believe
I’ll waste a day
To sit alone of empty stairs
And contemplate
About the life that’s easing in
I’ll cover my couch
With an old sheet and I’ll close the door behind me
The ground beneath our feet is spent
But I will keep my roots instead
I know you're scared
When there's a darkness you can't see
But I'll be there
To hold you tightly, close to me
So we can go
And let our plans begin so our lives can start again
The ground beneath our feet is spent
But I will keep my roots instead
And find a place to rest my head
So we can start again
We can start again
