how do i go on how do i settle down how do i make it home tonight a few years ago i said hello to you and good bye to me there's nothing wrong with you or the things you do but now i know why the bird cage swings i think of all the days they go away and don't come back again seems like there's more yesterdays and less todays seep in speeding under the stars a place that used to be ours we won't be kissing on mars tonight i'm breaking out on my own i've got to drive a new road the air is heavy and i'm traveling light a few years ago i said hello to you and good bye to me i've nothing better to do than lose a friend like you and wonder what the hell a word like freedom means
