Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Six years old
Staring at my nose in the mirror
Tryin' to get my toes in the mirror
Thinkin', "Who's that girl?"
And, "Does the mirror world go on forever?"
[Verse 2]
Carve me a road
Sharpening the knives in the attic
Tryin' to watch cartoons through the static
Thinkin', "Where am I gonna be?"
"If I'm ever twenty-three?" Oh
[Verse 3]
I'm lookin' at life unfold
Dreamin' of the green & gold
Just like the ancient stone
Every sunrise I know
Those eyes you gave to me
That let me see
Where I come from
[Verse 4]
Found an old friend
Meetin' my guitar in the city
Feelin' like a star in the city
And suddenly it seems that I'm where I'm supposed to be, oh
[Verse 5]
And now, I'm fully grown
And I'm seein' everything clearer
Just sweep away the dust from the mirror
We're walkin' hand in hand on the warm white sands
[Verse 6]
I'm lookin' at life unfold
Dreamin' of the green & gold
Just like the ancient stone
Every sunrise I know
Those eyes you gave to me
That let me see
Where I come from
[Verse 7]
Ancient stone
Oh, green & gold
Ancient stone
Oh, green & gold
[Verse 8]
Ancient stone
Green & gold
Ancient stone
Green & gold
[Verse 9]
I'm lookin' at life unfold
Dreamin' of the green & gold
Just like the ancient stone
Every sunrise I know
Those eyes you gave to me
That let me see
Where I come from
[Verse 10]
I'm lookin' at life unfold
Dreamin' of the green & gold
Just like the ancient stone
Every sunrise I know
Those eyes you gave to me
That let me see
Where I come from, oh
[Verse 11]
(Ancient stone)
(Green & gold) Those eyes you gave to me
(Ancient stone) You gave
(Green & gold) To me
[Verse 12]
Ancient stone (Why?)
Green & gold
