Verse 1
Hey mom, how you doing?
Hope this call goes through all the way to Massachusetts
Can’t believe the paths are losing
But there’s a time for one more drive
I’ve been thinking a lot this morning
Don’t really know where my life is going
But the real world’s coming in any moment
I’m scared to death inside
Pre-Chorus
My friends have moved to cities
Found someone that’s pretty
Maybe settle down on the South side
Starting life saying, “It’s great”
Next day they’ll say they hate it
What the hell do I do with mine?
Chorus
The train and wheels are gone and everyone’s movin’ on
The clock won’t even stop for a minute
And then before you know, you’re out there on your own
Wondering where to go and what you’re missing
It hits so fast you can’t prepare for that
Day you walk out the door,
and you’re not a kid anymore
Verse 2
Four years is almost up now
And they say this place it’s a tenure town
I’ve been trying to find myself,
trying to figure out myself
One day you’re getting closer,
the next it feels like it’s all over
I’m not old but I’m getting older,
and I could use a little help
Pre-Chorus
Cuz my friends have moved to cities,
Found someone that’s pretty
Maybe settle down on the South side,
Starting life saying, “It’s great”
Next day they’ll say they hate it
What the hell do I do with mine?
Chorus
The train and wheels are gone and everyone’s movin’on
The clock won’t even stop for a minute
And then before you know, you’re out there on your own
Wondering where to go and what you’re missing
It hits so fast you can’t prepare for that
Day you walk out the door, and you’re not a kid anymore
And you’re not a kid anymore
Bridge
And moments turn into memory, just like seasons change
And I’ll always be your baby, but I just call to say
Pre-Chorus
My friends have moved to cities
Found someone that’s pretty
Maybe settle down on the South side
Starting life saying, “It’s great”
Next day they’ll say they hate it
What the hell do I do with mine?
Chorus
The train and wheels are gone and everyone’s movin’on
The clock won’t even stop for a minute
And then before you know, you’re out there on your own
Wondering where to go and what you’re missing
It hits so fast you can’t prepare for that
Day you walk out the door, and I’ll always be your baby
But I’m not a kid anymore
