My grandfather used to say, "don't put off tomorrow, what you can't do today" |
|
And when you find the one, say it loud and bold |
|
I ran into my first love, 6th grade and summer at the Samp Mortar Pond |
|
We'd crank up Pearl Jam and we would never get old |
|
We'd try to sing along to the tunes we'd hear |
|
When every song still sounded like a hymn |
|
All of it was gone by my 16th year |
|
But I remember those words that my Grandfather said |
|
Lovers they came and they went, |
|
Plenty of money and heartache was spent, I kept searching |
|
I tried to sing along to the tunes I knew |
|
But eventually they didn't sound the same |
|
Everything he said, well it still holds true |
|
It's not just the words, but the way that you say them |
|
Who we are, who we will become |
|
We were kids, we were just having fun |
|
Through it all I kept singing my songs |
|
Who we are and who we will become |
|
Some day I guess it will be me, passing on words to my own legacy |
|
What I leave behind, was it more than I came with? |
|
Who we are, who we will become |
|
We were kids, we had barely begun |
|
Through it all I knew you were the one |
|
Who we are, who we will become |
