This track's a little lengthy, but it's one of my best. I wrote this before any of the other songs on the album, and I was so proud of it that I took it to school and sang it for a few of my friends in a little closet-like practice room. They loved it, and they came to sing along, and they quote the lyrics to me from time to time, and that is an incredible feeling. If it weren't for the support and love shown to me by my friends when I played them this song, I might not have an album to show you today, so I want to thank them.
This song isn't about one person in particular, but many people all mixed up. It's about things that've happened in real life, things that've happened in dreams, and things that I hope happen someday. It's about people I've fallen for, people who've lost me, people I might never see again, and people I've yet to meet. I love you all, thanks for listening.
lyrics
So long, farewell, hope you enjoyed your stay,
But now it's time that we parted ways
You read the script, saw it put on stage,
I loved the show, but goodbye, Paige
You changed your name after all these years,
You've grown up, but you still have the same old fears
My hourglass got knocked right over
I walked through the sand, found a four-leafed clover
The night's almost over to my surprise,
We're all one day older, I can see it in your eyes
The night's almost over to my surprise,
We're all one day older, I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your eyes
Hello, I love you, what've you been up to?
There's no time for goodbyes, there's too much for us to do
I don't want a refund if I overpay
If I can be by your side for just one more day
We sang a song together in A sharp minor
Then walked through the rain to a run-down diner
Stopped by the newsstand, everything's just fine
The world's on fire, but at least you're mine
The night's almost over to my surprise,
We're all one day older, I can see it in your eyes
The night's almost over to my surprise,
We're all one day older, I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your eyes
The fog's getting think, now... It's almost time for you to go
The boat's almost here, I hope it floats real slow
It's not a kiss goodbye, it's a song in sensation
And when you left, it felt like an amputation
I hope she meets someone, I hope he's just like me
I hope she locks her heart, but he has the key,
I walk home alone with my heart beating slowly
Little did I know, I'd get over it someday
The night's almost over to my surprise,
We're all one day older, I can see it in your eyes
The night's almost over to my surprise,
We're all one day older, I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your eyes
This album speaks to me in a special way, absolute best of the best. Songs about longing, missing people, and pure sweet calm. Completely touching and amazing. Nathaniel Liles
