Lyrics
V1: I have heard that we're lonely.
It's been said we're losing sleep.
One even complained about the ocean.
Said something 'bout cold feet.You will say that you mean to.
Well, you're running out of time.
You will say you will once you.
Well, get in line.CH: But I will be gone tomorrow, far from this life.
Oh, I will be steppin'a outta bounds, 'cause I've heard it's alright.
Oh, I will be gone tomorrow, far from this life
Of I wish.V2: I hear the music's good in Nashville.
Been told 'bout sunshine in the West.
High times aboundin' in Denver.
Perhaps that L.A. is the best.Family residing down in Houston,
San Fran, Bar Harbor, Charlotte too.
West New York, Boston, Philadelphia.
Well now, that's just to name a few.Chorus
V3: The truth is I am getting tired
Defining myself 'hind closed doors.
Maybe when this thing is over,
I'll be a better me than before, because...BR: I need a little time to read my mind.
I've got to figure this out.
Why don't you come along, follow this song,
And find me out?Cause I...Cause I...Cause I...
I will be gone tomorrow,
I will be gone tomorrow,
I will be gone tomorrow,
I will be gone.I will be gone.
(Oh, I will be gone.)
Oh, I will be steppin'a outta bounds, 'cause I've heard it's alright.
(Oh, I will be gone.)
Oh, I will be gone, be gone, alright.
(Oh, I will be gone.)
Oh, I will be gone. -

Lyrics
V1: We are experts at disappointment,
Lousy extraordinaires,
And the amusing thing about
Is we were taught to live how we dared,PRE: So though it's hard to see,
We're finding who we're s'posed to be.
We've spent some time,
But I know we'll be fine.
We've made our choice,
Our stomping grounds for now,
Virginia life.CH: Here's to life, and here's to Lynchburg.
To the years we spent together.
I don't know when or how we gathered,
But I know I'm home.
So here's to love, and here's to the heartache,
All the laughter, every mistake.
I don't know how our lives will be changed,
But here I'm home.V2: Now's our time to unwind, fill our minds with a
Kind of a love that we know is enough, 'cause we've
Grown it for years, spoken for it in tears,
Broken our hearts in fear, sold our souls to these years,PRE: And though it's hard to see,
We're finding who we're s'posed to be.
We've spent some time,
But I know we'll be fine.
We've made our choice,
Our stomping grounds for now,
Virginia life.CH: Here's to life, and here's to Lynchburg.
To the years we spent together.
I don't know when or how we gathered,
But I know I'm home.
So here's to love, and here's to the heartache,
All the laughter, every mistake.
I don't know how our lives will be changed,
But here I'm home.BR: In the battle for a good time, we are the front lines.
In the battle for a good time, we are the front lines.
In the battle for a good time, we are the front lines.
In the battle for a good time, we are, we are...
...the front lines.CH: Here's to life, and here's to Lynchburg.
To the years we spent together.
I don't know when or how we gathered,
But I know I'm home.
So here's to love, and here's to the heartache,
All the laughter, every mistake.
I don't know how our lives will be changed,
But here I'm, but here I'm home.Here I'm home.

Lyrics
V1: I'm sitting here hungover
From the drunk of today.
Watching him and you
Has made me feel so strange.PRE: Don't get me wrong, I know I had my chance.
It's just I fear I let you go before we got to dance.CH: The truth is it'd be easier just to
Forget it all, point at here or there,
But when it comes down to it,
Though it's sad to say,
Sometimes the best we ever have
Is first to get away.V2: I guess it's best to assume
The position I have tried.
Watching from a distance,
Forced to swallow my pride.PRE: Don't get me wrong, I know I had my chance.
It's just I fear you're worth too much to waste your heart
On his dance, on his dance, on his dance.CH: The truth is it'd be easier just to
Forget it all, point at here or there,
But when it comes down to it,
Though it's sad to say...CH2: The truth is it'd be easier
Just to forget it all, point it at here or there,
But when it comes down to it,
Though it's sad to say,
Sometimes the best we ever have
Is first to get away.
Sometimes the best we ever have, oh.
Sometimes the best we ever have......Is first to get away.

Lyrics
V1: Let's just sit here, you and me. Nothing can go wrong.
Though strangers we may be, we sing the same song.
The wind is beautiful; it beckons a flight,
But time is critical; it beckons the fight.CH: Hello lonely bird, finding your way.
Loss of vision, hard decisions, along the way.
Hello lonely bird, what do you say?
Make a nest, sit alone, or fly away.
Make a nest, sit alone, or fly away.V2: Stormy clouds give way to rain. The right path seems to fade.
They fear just what we'd gain if we chose to forbade
The chains that hold us down. The world to explore
Is simply what we've found needed to restore our sound.BR: Nothing can go wrong.
Nothing can go wrong. They keep sayin'
Nothing can go wrong. I know!
Nothing can go wrong...But this could be so much
Better, so much better, so much
Better, so much better
Ooh...CH: Hello lonely bird, finding your way.
Loss of vision, hard decisions, along the way.
Hello lonely bird, what do you say?
Make a nest, sit alone, or fly away.
Make a nest, sit alone, or fly away. -

Lyrics
V1: Suddenly, it takes you by surprise,
The way the walls seem to die.
Oh to escape into the dusty landscape,
Or to fall deeper into the shadowy blue.CH: Not this way. The world's stopped.
Some new day this has turned out to be.
A helpless moment of history.
History.V2: Take a hit. Stay a little longer.
Taste the air make you a little stronger.
Try to forget the way you said it would be.
Just let yourself be.CH: Not this way. The world's stopped.
Some new day this has turned out to be.
A helpless moment of history.
History. -
