You said you're leaving on the weekend
But I keep changing my mind
I've loved you for far too long just to stay behind
And I don't trust your steering
But you never let me drive
You've always had your vision
But I'm not blind
You opened your door, said "Baby, get in
I won't take no for an answer again
We've come too far to let this thing end."
And now you're crying
I said, "How'd we get to this?"
You said, "A hundred forty G's and a job in Los Angeles."
Though we've always played with fire
We tried to mitigate the risk
But when it landed in your lap you learned how hard it is
To say "No" when it came time
To learn to prioritize
But I told you this is your life
The coast is waiting
I won't take no for an answer again
You've come too far to let this slip through your hands
And I've watched you grow as your left-hand man
The coast is waiting
