Saying Goodbye to the Beginning
(Verse 1) I found an old picture in a box tonight, Dust on the corners, tears in my eyes, There I was smiling with a world to chase, Before all the scars learned my name. Back when the summer felt endless and free, When tomorrow was something I'd never fear to see, The roads looked golden from where I would stand, Before life slipped right through my hands. (Pre-Chorus) And I swear I can still hear those echoes calling, Voices of the dreamers before the falling, But time keeps moving like a river in the rain, And no matter how I reach, I can't go back again. (Chorus) So here's to the beginning, The boy I used to be, The fire in his heartbeat, The hope he carried free. Here's to all the memories, The moments I held tight, I'm standing at the doorway, Watching them fade into the light. And it hurts more than I'm willing to admit, Knowing some goodbyes don't come with a choice in it, So raise a glass for yesterday, let the old days sing, Tonight I'm saying goodbye to the beginning. (Verse 2) I remember granddad's voice on a Sunday afternoon, Saying life goes by faster than you think it should, son, soon, I laughed because I thought he had forever left to stay, Now I'd give anything to hear those words one more day. All the friends I thought would never leave my side, All the dreams that didn't survive the ride, Every chapter that ended before I was ready, Every promise lost in the stormy weather. (Pre-Chorus) Sometimes I still look over my shoulder, Searching for a world that's getting older, But the footprints disappear beneath the rain, And the past ain't a road that runs both ways. (Chorus) So here's to the beginning, The boy I used to be, The fire in his heartbeat, The hope he carried free. Here's to all the memories, The moments I held tight, I'm standing at the doorway, Watching them fade into the light. And it hurts more than I'm willing to admit, Knowing some goodbyes don't come with a choice in it, So raise a glass for yesterday, let the old days sing, Tonight I'm saying goodbye to the beginning. (Bridge) Maybe growing up is grieving all the people we once were, Carrying their ghosts inside every lesson learned, Every broken road, every battle won, Every version of myself that helped me become someone. And if they're listening somehow beyond the years gone by, I hope they know I tried... (Final Chorus) Here's to the beginning, To every dream that made me strong, To every tear and every scar, That carried me this far along. Here's to the innocence, The laughter in the air, The days when life was simple, And love was everywhere. I can't stay here forever, No matter how my heart still clings, The hardest thing I've ever done... Is saying goodbye to the beginning. (Outro) The pages keep turning, The seasons keep changing, And though I'll always miss where I came from... Tomorrow is waiting. :::
