Once again we're reminded of how it all will end
And we've outgrown illusion
We can no longer pretend
But it wasn't long ago
Our chins in the air
Within the safety of home
We were bound for anywhere
The only thing that we all had in common was you
And now you've moved on
And there isn't anything we can do
But it wasn't long ago
We were all gathered 'round
This house was a home
Happiness was found
Now we must find a new safety in self
And implement all that we've learned
Now is the time to find our own wealth
And stand on our own
So much we have grown
From knowing you
I know this loss was intended
To let us all begin
And to give up now would be a sin
We can't fall down
We've got to keep marching
But it wasn't long ago
We were all at ease
Headed for home
Thought we had beat this disease
And it wasn't long ago
That we lived with the prayer
That in the safety of home
You would always be there
Now we must find a new safety in self
And all that you taught is returned
Now is the time to find our own wealth
And finish what's begun before our days are done
We must be true
Now we must find a new safety in self
And live all the life you deserved
And now is the time to find our own wealth
Though we're not made of stone
Or meant to be alone
I've learned this to from you
