Eyes like stones
Showing no emotion
Trying to be the tough guy
Lost in my devotion.
Your bags are packed
Your friends in the car
Leaving for a new country
Half the world is twice as far
Don’t go baby
Don’t leave our hometown
If you go you break me
Stay now and save me
Remember playing on the beach
Driftwood art making new dreams
Now we’re so out of reach
I walk in shadow you in sunbeams
Sell everything we own
Everything we have
It’s a new way
It’s a new life
