lyrics

You know it’s really been a long, long time.
Does it hurt to see the ways that I have grown?
A thousand years have passed since we rode horses in the grass,
And we walked hand in hand to doughnuts at the desk.
But I have not forgotten where we’ve been,
The circumstance of life that kept us closer than our friends,
That we all left behind to chase a future,
Where we might not be the victims of a choice we didn’t make.
If all I ever learned from you was love,
The special kind that wraps you and protects you from the world,
That would be enough but I could never measure up,
To all the things you gave along the way.
Tomorrow there’ll be time for us again,
When all the dreams we chased have brought us home,
There’ll be music in the kitchen and sweet stories of the life you gave to us,
Today I really wish that I was home.
