lyrics

These twelve hour drives
That epitomize the summer
Were always something I looked forward to.
I know it's not the case, I know it's not the case this time.

We left everyone we knew behind
To take you one step farther than we were willing to go.
We left everyone we knew behind
So you could leave us all alone.

These farewell-goodbyes
At six in the morning
Were the worst way to start the day.
But we'll keep driving on knowing what's on the other side of the country.

Six years and counting
Refuse to be silenced
By lack of contact.
We'll write to you in the fall
Expecting to hear that you're fine.

I promise we can go camping before you go.
It seems like time, it got the best of us.
I promise we can go camping before you go.

It seems like time, it got the best of us.
