lyrics

In my head I’m still a kid
Still living at my parents’ house
And looking to the future, like I did
In reality I’ve got creaking bones and an old man’s soul
And I’m scared that I have missed
Something I’m supposed to know

But this is nothing new and I think I should be
Over it by now, but it takes some getting used to

I’ve never been good at letting go and moving on
It’s one of many things I never learned
People say you don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone
But it hurts more when you knew all along

I’ve spent my life
With my head in the clouds
And my feet less than firmly on the ground
I spend all night
Staring up at my ceiling
Waiting for the sun to rise

I’ve spent my life
With my head in the clouds
And my feet less than firmly on the ground

I’ve been trying to find a way to make everything okay
But I’m tired and I’m sick
But the more I try, the more I lie, and the more I come apart

But this is nothing new and I think I should be
Over it by now, but it takes some getting used to

I’ve never been good at letting go and moving on
It’s one of many things I never learned
People say you don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone
But it hurts more when you knew all along

I’ve spent my life
With my head in the clouds
And my feet less than firmly on the ground
I spend all night
Staring up at my ceiling
Waiting for the sun to rise

I guess I never learned to say goodbye
I just always see the good things leave out of the corner of my eye
