Verse1: Leaving home Finding a new place to call my own Packing my bags as I’m on the phone I think about how this will be I’m on my way I take a glance back as I drive away This was my home only yesterday When did the clock move so fast? Pre-Chorus: I’ve tried to grow I’ve tried to change my mind But the world is cruel And all I see are lies Chorus: As night turns into day And winter melts away The landscape, it will change To reveal new views (2nd time) The road we travel down That takes us out of town It’s on a twisted path Of possibilities Verse2: Now I’m here Out on my own in a state of fear I really hope I chose the right career This is a big risk to take Pre-Chorus Chorus Bridge: What if I had never left this town? What if I had stayed and stuck around? In my head it all would work out fine But I can’t live like this; I need to live my life Pre-Chorus: I’ve tried to grow and Have a change of heart But the world’s still cruel And I don’t know where to start Chorus

Verse1: I miss the summer nights And the lonely traffic lights That we’d pass when you would drive me home I miss the walks we’d take And all the things we’d say Like making plans for when we’re on our own Pre-Chorus: Every time I see you I can’t make up my mind (I think I change my mind) But the kisses that you gave me I’ll have to leave behind Chorus: Turn around And cut the string That ties me down to you Years go by Like shooting stars Just let me start anew And get past you Verse2: Those years were like a dream A never-ending stream Of sunny afternoons I’d spend with you But now that’s all been changed Our lives are rearranged There’s someone else’s arms you fell into Pre-Chorus Chorus Bridge: Watching for high tide When hurricanes fly You’ve darkened the skies tonight I’m searching for the house of light Chorus x2

Hold Me Back 04:13
Verse1: I woke up Sunday And made my breakfast I thought about what you would say I slept in again I’m just too tired To think about if I had stayed I don’t expect to hear from you I know we should move on Chorus: And in the shadows cast around your memory There is a light that keeps me holding on I’m gonna try and make you see it clearly That nothing here could ever hold me back And something tells me that I should believe That there is hope for all of us out here I’ll take the world and make it spin so freely I’ll take a chance and do it all again Verse2: I woke up Monday And watched my T.V. I thought about new plans I’d made It’s 7 a.m. The coffee’s ready I didn’t think what you would say I know what to expect by now I know how to move on Chorus Bridge: Now, you’ve got to clear your mind The feelings fade with time I’m taking off tonight I’m vanishing from sight Chorus

Verse1: When you were young in life Days would pass you by Summer nights they would Never end Watching the full moon rise Catching fireflies Sharing stories with All your friends Pre-Chorus: Times like this could last forever If only in your mind Seasons change as the world keeps turning Around and round again Chorus: Gather, the leaves, Under the maple tree And you, will be, Happy enough to see All the, journeys You took along the way They lead, you to Where you can be today Taking your time Planning your life Watching the world around you change Verse2: Time keeps on blowing by As you realize There’s a life that you Have to choose Summer is over now Winter won’t allow Friends that you never thought You would lose Pre-Chorus: Times like this could last forever If only you could try To make a change as the world keeps turning Around and round again Chorus Bridge: You’ve got whole life ahead of you You could do anything you want to do But all of those memories take you back You just keep hoping you’re on the right track Pre-chorus: Times like this will last forever You’ve seen all the signs Seasons change as you’re growing older What a joyful ride Chorus
