The Day We Went Away

The day we went away
Feels like only yesterday
We flew for hours until
We climbed the walls that couldn’t keep us still
The day that we touched down
When that beast glided to the ground
The things we thought we knew
Left as fast as we flew
The day that we arrived
As we descended from the sky
Oh what a sunny place
Filled with hopes and dreams for us to chase
And we did amazing things
We finally spread our wings
We can do anything I’m sure
Since the day we went away
The day we looked around
And stumbled across what we had found
Well we searched high and low
That’s when we lost all control
The day we found ourselves
We were hiding on a shelf
Of an antique clothing store
Folded tight and in the draw
The day that we came home
And realised how much we had grown
Sometime to relax
But all I wanna do is go back
We did amazing things
We finally spread our wings
We can do anything
We went through ups and downs
But we turned this ship around
And it’s straight ahead from here on in
Since the day we went away
The day I saw the light
And knew that I was worth hype
When I finally realized
That I’d no longer compromise
The day I understood
That I would swap can’t for could
Cause when its all said and done
Well, this is suppose to be fun
How did I stumble on
I’m singing a new song
And it sounds better than
Everything that went before
Cause now I want it more
It’s straight ahead from here on in
Since the day we went away
