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
