Making my way out of this town tonight I'm gonna shine brighter than these city lights There's a spark in my eye that could light up the sky But my tongue is tied so this could take some time Gotta make a name, gotta get outta town I've got my heart on my sleeve and my head in the clouds There's one way to get up, if nothing's bringing me down I only hope to see your face when I come back around Please don't say goodbye, 'cause I'll be gone in the blink of an eye I can't stop now, I'm only halfway There's so much more, I'll make it someday And I won't fall asleep, until I make this dream into reality The best things in life will take some time And I won't let this moment pass me by This is a two way trip and I, Got a ticket for a one way ride There's no expiration, exchange or destination I've gotta go, I'm not losing hope I'd risk it all yeah just to know, what it feels like to miss home Please don't say goodbye, 'cause I'll be gone in the blink of an eye I can't stop now, I'm only halfway There's so much more, I'll make it someday And I won't fall asleep, until I make this dream into reality The best things in life will take some time And I won't let this moment pass me by You'll be alright, you'll be just fine You'll be alright, It takes some time My heads above the water, and I'm afraid to drown Not because I'm scared to die, but fear I'll let you down And we'll all drift on You'll be alright, you'll be just fine You'll be alright, It takes some time My heads above the water, and I'm afraid to drown Not because I'm scared to die, but fear I'll let you down My heads above the water, and I'm afraid to drown Not because I'm scared to die, but fear I'll let you down Someday we'll become strangers, someday we'll turn to dust I'll wait around a thousand years and hope that it's enough (My heads above the water, and I'm afraid to drown Not because I'm scared to die, but fear I'll let you down) Someday we'll become strangers, someday we'll turn to dust I'll wait around a thousand years and hope that it's enough And we'll all drift on. (It takes some time)
