25

[Verse 1]
In the springtime of '17
I saw things I thought I'd never see
In my lifetime, now I dream
Of what I swore I once would be
Funny how life took the pilot seat
When least expected, it swept me away

[Verse 2]
In the night time of 23
I saw things I thought I'd never see
In my lifetime, now I'm wondering
What life would look like had you and me
Kept every promise, only were honest
Honestly, I wonder where we'd be

[Chorus]
But this is where I am now
This is where I made my home and
This is where I landed
No more going back
So I'll stay here, build a fire
Lie awake and pray to God for strength to carry on

[Verse 3]
In my year of 24
I saw things I thought I'd never see
In my lifetime, now I sing
And most of my songs are lyrically inspired
By the times we had and times we never got to see
And I grieve

[Verse 4]
In this moment of 25
Here's a snapshot photo into my life
I grew fast and grew up wise
It hit me hard like a punch in the eye
If you just want a simple life, then good luck, baby
Go ahead and try

[Chorus]
But this is where I am now
This is where I made my home and
This is where I landed
No more going back
So I'll stay here, build a fire
Lie awake and pray to God for strength to carry on
Yeah, yeah

[Bridge]
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
My dear, my dear
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
My dear
Where do you take your heart
When all that once was clear
Is no longer clear?

[Chorus]
And this is where I am now
This is where I made my home and
This is where I landed
No more going back
So I'll stay here, build a fire
Lie awake and pray to God for strength to carry on, yea-eah
This is where I am now
This is where I made my home and
And this is where I landed
No more going back
So I'll stay here, build a fire
Lie awake and pray to God for strength to carry on

[Outro]
Yea-eah, strength to carry on
Yea-eah, strength to carry on
Yea-eah
