lyrics

Me and baby had a talk today
We were Stuck inside the words we said
So I told her to relax
That every dream takes time to grow
Just look at me, I've been wading in glum since I was a boy

I still hope someday I'll fly
Everyone I love by my side
I've done all it takes to feel right
I deserve it this time

Take me back to childhood when I first set eyes on you
I was taken aback by your sweet hue
All the years have gone by and I still feel like a baby child
Like a twisted trunk pushing cracks into the the above ground

It's when we figured out
Wishful thinking is just dead air
Unless we do
Speak hold sing pause renew
Renew me baby

All the years have gone by
Not everything is the same
On the heels of a dream bursting brain
So pick it as you please and leave the rest to apathy
And I'll hold you like a diamond in the nest where no one else can see
