Hey, it’s been quite a while since I’ve been in town.
I miss all you guys.
I’m sorry I don’t show it.
I guess it’s easier to pretend my life has moved on since those days.
Do any of you remember the scared kid I was?
Or maybe that was just me.
I didn’t like to talk.
I didn’t smile much, even though you were my reasons to.
Hey, it’s been quite a while, I can feel my guitar miss the beat of your drums
When I’m in my car, I miss laughing so dumb!
Hey, it’s been quite a while! Do you remember when we used to canoe?
Sometimes it rained, but, I mean, what could you do?
Time keeps marching on.
I try not to step so fast,
Trying to make the good times all last.
Hey, it’s been quite a while. I don’t think I’ve ever spent the holidays alone,
But it helps to remember how all of you can make a place feel like home.
It’s been quite a while,
It’s been several years since some of you seen my face.
In person, I mean, and I’m real sorry if that’s been the case.
There’s not enough time in the world to slow down,
Even when I manage to roll back in town.
We all ate a Michael's out on North Ashley
I didn’t want to leave.
Please, believe.
I didn’t want to leave.
