A Little Longer

Running around again

Tracking the footprints that I was laying

Out on the dock

And in the pines

I let go of it all

My ego, my time

Passing the trees we already marked

Scraping my knee on every turn

It’s worth it

To relearn

I’m healing

Every burn

I need a little longer

I need a little longer

(I’m healing)

I need a little longer

I need a little longer

(I’m healing)

Reading with a closed eye

A mountain view in my mind

Oh I try to forget

How long it’s been

Since I was a boy

An eagle then

Maybe this road ain’t mine

Maybe the story’s been fake all this time

I’m taking the weight off

The back and forth

Disguising

My rebirth

I need a little longer

I need a little longer

(I’m healing)

I need a little longer

I need a little longer

(I’m healing)

I need a little longer

Just a little longer

I need a little longer

Just a little longer

Finding every little piece of me

In the backyard of a daydream

I need a little longer

I need a little longer

I need a little longer

Oh, need a little longer
