Chasing the Sky Lyrics

He was sixteen with a backpack full of dreams

Riding his bike through small-town streets

Waking up early, chasing sunrise light

Racing against time, pushing through the night

She sat in the back row, head full of plans

Drawing her future on the back of her hand

Counting the days till she'd leave this town

Knew she'd make it out, no way she'd back down

They crossed paths at the edge of the hill

Both dreaming of more, both standing still

They were chasing the sky, reaching so high

Running from shadows that blurred the lines

Two souls lost, but ready to fight

Chasing the sky, running through the night

They didn't know where the road would lead

But they both believed in what they could be

One day she said"Let's get out of here

There's nothing for us, only dust and fear"

He grabbed his jacket, tossed it on with a grin"Let's see the world, let's begin"

They rode through the fields, past the county line

With the sun in their eyes, hearts in overdrive

No turning back, no looking behind

They had each other and a dream to find

Miles away from the place they knew

With nothing but hope and a sky so blue

They were chasing the sky, reaching so high

Running from shadows that blurred the lines

Two souls lost, but ready to fight

Chasing the sky, running through the night

They didn't know where the road would lead

But they both believed in what they could be

They hit the city with stars in their eyes

Took on the world beneath neon skies

They learned that dreams don't always come fast

But they never let go, they held on to the last

Still chasing the sky, reaching so high

Running from shadows that blurred the lines

Two souls lost, but ready to fight

Chasing the sky, running through the night

They didn't know where the road would lead

But they both believed in what they could be

Years went by but they never lost sight

Still chasing the sky, still burning bright.
