State Valley Lyrics

Your summer's just about over now and you decide to hit the road

You still haven't finished school, yet you want to leave your home

And I know how to turn away when I hear your lips make a sound

Yet you decide to turn away from grabbing that cap and gown

Times are changing, heading towards the best

Summer's fading why can't you see the rest

I don't know how this thing goes and why you cannot stay

But I was told when I get old, these problems just go away

So how's life treat you now? Are you happy with your first choice?

You said you want to pave the way, who said you had a voice?

Growing up on an eastern side, yet you're only longing for the west

A country river with city lights, that's what seems to suit you best

Times are changing, heading towards the best

Summer's fading, why can't you see the rest

Fall is coming and the leaves are going brown

You can miss it, slam the brakes and slow down

I don't know how this thing goes and why you cannot stay

But I was told when I get old, these problems just go away

The seasons change so fast, oh wouldn't you agree

That when I saw you last, you weren't worried about a degree

And if we are nothing again, is it possible you might mean

We were something from start to end, before you left the scene

Smell you later, see you then

Small town kids, big time friends

Smell you later, see you then

Small town kids, big time friends

Smell you later, see you then

Small town kids, big time friends

Smell you later, see you then

Small town kids, big time friends

I don't know how this thing goes and why you cannot stay

But I was told when I get old, these problems just go away

I don't know how this thing goes and why you cannot stay

But I was told when I get old, these problems just go away
