A Little Longer Lyrics

Outside are the trees and the grass where I played as a little kid

Outside are the yards and the bushes where a thousand baseballs are hid

Outside is the child that I was, that I wish had known a little more than he did

And all I wanna do

Is stay here a little longer with you

Outside there is progress being made, and it's made of steel and glass

Outside there is change upon change, and things are changing too fast

Outside those who aren't old enough to know are saying this too shall pass

And all I wanna do

Is stay here a little longer with you

Outside there are roads to be driven

Stretching mile after mile

But outside those roads and those highways

Are gonna have to wait a little while

'Cos outside are the noises and the promise and the complications of life

Outside there is darkness but for those moments that shine impossibly bright

Inside all I wanna do is tell you about all the times that you were right

And all I wanna do

Is stay here a little longer with you

Outside are the signs and the reminders of all the things you used to love

Outside are the moon and the stars and the heavy skies that hang above

Outside are the dreams and all the things that you ever helped me dream of

And all I wanna do

Is stay here a little longer with you
