shut your mouth and listen closely,

because this silence isn't easy

so i'll break it even harder than before


because i'm 16 going on the end of my days,

and if words aren't going to cut than i'll find another way.


because i'm leaving what i know behind,

and i'm living out my chance to shine

like the stars now fading from your eyes

and i hope you'll understand


woah, woah, please wait till i come home

woah, woah, don't turn my heart to stone.


now the runway lights are fading,

with the darkness overtaking,

i'll leave you standing watching all alone

from that paneglass window one million miles away

and i'm sorry when i tell you

but i'm coming back someday


because i'm leaving what i know behind,

and i'm living out my chance to shine

like the stars now fading from your eyes

and i hope you'll understand


woah, woah, please wait till i come home

woah, woah, don't turn my heart to stone.


woah, woah, please wait till i come home

woah, woah, don't turn my heart to stone.


don't turn my heart to stone.
