Two kids are on a swingsetnoutside by me and younand I can't quite place where I placed my keysnthe sun is setting, the moon is bright tonightnand I love the shadow our hands cast by the treesnnThe leaves don't fall anymoren'cause it's summer, thank God for thatnand I could run away, I've got legs for thatnbut I've got a home now and I like it here.nnThe birds outside my doornsing me to sleep, I'm surento thank them every night and keep in touchnwith the friends I thought I lostnsomehow I always find them where I left themnI'm beginning to think my parents were right all along.nnI used to be scared of love, but now I keep it closenwithout it we'd all forget to breathe.nnFairly soon I want to move to a small house on the coastnjust because the ocean's so pretty.nnLike a flower petal lostnin the wind's relentless gust,nI've forgotten where I'm from but still have hopenthat I'll find myself a new lifennot too different from the oldnwhere I'll laugh and get lost some more and we'll still have inside jokesnand I'll still be so forgetfulnand we'll trade in all our moneynfor the simple things.nnThey say dreams are uncertainnI say lies are overratednWe should bury them and smile a little moren'cause if there's one thing I've learned from being young and insecurenit's you don't need no money to live and be happynjust find some friends and forget all the worst.
