When the distance of staying in Feels like a lifetime And we’re separated by the miles Rather than footsteps We’re leaving soon the homes that made us From the plague that almost took us And the angels who saved us Now it’s spring The changing of trees And the sound of the animals The birds are chatting And the bugs are singing us to sleep The world feels a little different Much smaller than before But I have my friends And I have my family And I have my life Even though it’s a little quiet.

Leaving
When the distance of staying in Feels like a lifetime And we’re separated by the miles Rather than footsteps We’re leaving soon the homes that made us From the plague that almost took us And the angels who saved us Now it’s spring The changing of trees And the sound of the animals The birds are chatting And the bugs are singing us to sleep The world feels a little different Much smaller than before But I have my friends And I have my family And I have my life Even though it’s a little quiet.
