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

Cut The String

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

Under The Maple Tree
04:45

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
