We said, let's not grow apart We're just a phone call away
From being where each other are, I know We're all scared but we'll hide it
We're scared of leaving home He said, this is only the start
He's headed to college and the girl's got his heart
Oh I know, he's scared but he'll hide it He's scared of leaving home
We're just kids, we're so far from knowing The frightening life ahead
Behind the doors and reach to open Split paths and move on
To escape what once was Just to find out what we missed
Asked, he said, that he doesn't know what he wants
He goes back and forth, maybe a pilot in the air force
He's probably changed the most, his communication growth
But his daddy's got a hold on him We're scared he'll never leave home
That's a joke, moving on to my other friend He's dreaming big, got bigger plans
Than this stupid town we live in I know, he's not a bit scared but we are
We're scared he's leaving home
We're just kids, we're so far from knowing The frightening life ahead
Behind the doors and reach to open Split paths and move on
To escape what once was Just to find out what we missed
Asked, he said, that he doesn't know what he wants He goes back and forth, maybe a pilot in the air force
He's probably changed the most, his communication growth
But his daddy's got a hold on him We're scared he'll never leave home
That's a joke, moving on to my other friend He's dreaming big, got bigger plans
To escape what once was Just to find out what we missed
Asked, he said, that he doesn't know what he wants He goes back and forth, maybe a pilot in the air force
