The Long Way Down

When I was young
You were the talk of the town
You used to laugh at me
Didn't want me around

You were a hero
Could have had me alone
You said you wanna make it
Make it on your own

Nothing has changed it's the same as yesterday
It’s a long way so don't look around
'Cause it's a long way down
A long way down

Graduation day
You were ready to fly
You were going places
Didn't say goodbye

Just wait I'll show you
I'm gonna do my thing
People are gonna love me
Treat me like a queen

Nothing has changed it's the same as yesterday
It's a long way from here to the stars
You won't let love ever get in your way
It's a long way so don't look around
'Cause it's a long way down
A long way down

Back where we began
I'm the talk of the town
You got wife wife and kids
On the long way down

Nothing has changed it's the same as yesterday
It's a long way from here to the stars
You won't let love ever get in your way
It's a long way so don't look around
'Cause it's a long way down
A long way down
A long way down
