Lyrics

She said “Baby girl, it’s been a week since you called or texted me.
Is everything alright where you are?
I miss you but to tell the truth
Baby I’m so proud of you
And I know that you’re gonna make it far
There’s so much that I need to tell you
But we’ll have to catch up next time I see you
I went up to your bedroom closet
Packed everything up in boxes and
Daddy helped me put them in the attic
I couldn’t tell you what’s inside em
You never know what you might find
But what you don’t need, you can let them go
But take the good stuff with you when you go back home.”
Well, little did my mama know
As soon as she hung up the phone
I packed my car and drove up 65
Around 11:59 I crossed that Pennsylvania state line
And told myself next time I’m gonna fly
There’s so much that I need to go through
But running away is easier to do
I went to up my bedroom closet
But everything’s packed up in boxes that
Mom and daddy put up in the attic
From birthday cards, hand me downs
High school yearbooks and prom gowns
And about hundred other things I can’t let go
How the hell am I gonna take this all back home?
He said “Baby girl, it’s been too long since I heard you sing a song.
Why do you keep hiding that away?
I see you look at your guitar and I wonder how you got so far
Without ever picking it up to play?
You keep looking back at old memories
When you really should be present with Me
I’ll meet you in your bedroom closet
Even in your cardboard boxes
But really I live higher than your attic
You’re holding on to so much pride
But you don’t know what you might find
When you can learn to finally let it go
And know that no matter how far away you roam
I’ll be here with you until you come back home
