I’m leaving on a plane 

And maybe I’m insane

Cuz no one knows my name

Like they do at home

This summer went by quick

As we took our last licks

I’m scrolling through the pictures on my phone

I’m on and off today

I’m sorry that I moved so far away

I wish I’d had the chance to say I know

That people they can change

But friends will stay the same no matter where

And sometimes life, it isn’t fair

The first green’s always gold

The weather’s getting cold

And we said when we got older we’d have time to figure it out

So why do I feel older now

You know when you’re a kid

Your parents seem so big 

And your life is yours to live for you

Now I’m a college grad

And I’m the same height as my dad

I think I’ve got his laughter too

I’m on and off today

I’m sorry that I moved so far away

I wish I’d had the chance to say I know

That people they can change

But family stays the same no matter where

And sometimes life, it isn’t fair

The first green’s always gold

The weather’s getting cold

And we said when we got older we’d have time to figure it out

So why do I feel older now

When I’m alone

I’m sinking like a stone

I’m driving circles round the block

Where do I go? The truth is I don’t know

What I am and what I’m not

I don’t really know myself

Maybe I’m just talking to myself

I don’t really know myself at all

I’m on and off today

I’m sorry that I moved so far away

I wish I’d had the chance to say I know

That people they can change

And I won’t stay the same, nobody does

But you’ve always got the ones you love

The first green’s always gold

The weather’s getting cold

And we said when we got older we’d have time to figure it out

I guess I’m getting older now

Dreamt of you again last night

Woke up with the smell of the ocean and a melancholic sigh

My body’s aching and it’s shaking my bones

We can’t go home

I’m holding on to memories of you

Like getting drunk on the beach at night or your favorite shade of blue

I miss the way you say my name when we’re alone

We can’t go home

You’re the sea and I’m the storm

You keep me safe, you keep me warm

You got me falling in love all over again

If you’re the shoe, then I’m the hole

We mend our worn, familiar soles

Finding comfort in loving my best friend

Don’t yell it yet, don’t speak so loud

We’ve flown the skies now touch back down

Don’t yell it yet

Elliot

I can’t, I can’t quite move on

If I could put all my pain and love into the music of a song

I’d write a song so good that you might sing along, oh

We can’t go home

You’re the sea and I’m the storm

You keep me safe, you keep me warm

You got me falling in love all over again

If you’re the shoe, then I’m the hole

We mend our worn, familiar soles

Finding comfort in loving my best friend

Don’t yell it yet

Don’t yell it yet

Don’t yell it yet

Elliot

I’ve been broken, torn apart

Cut to pieces, time to start

To try to patch them up and make them whole again

And though the seasons come and go

Time only heals the wounds so slow

And I’ll find comfort in the love of different friends

Don’t yell it yet, don’t speak so loud

We flew the skies, it’s over now

Don’t yell it yet

Elliot
