[Verse 1]
Stepped outside for the first time in days
Been solitary in so many ways
When I pull back the screen
Feels like I'm sixteen
Found an emotion that I can't thought away
[Pre-Chorus]
Campfire smoke and apple trees
Are bringing up old memories
It rises up when I'm tired and alone
I wish that I could come home
[Chorus]
It's only been phone calls for a while
Spent too much time wishing you were here
Soon we'll look back with a smile
Can't wait to talk about this year
[Verse 2]
I pretend that I'm not stuck in LA
I try a recipe that my mom used to make
And I made way too much
So I save some for lunch
Even though it doesn't taste quite the same
[Pre-Chorus]
It's just food in cellophane
But I'm nostalgic anyway
It rises up when I'm tired and alone
I wish that I could go home
[Chorus]
It's only been phone calls for a while
Spent too much time wishing you were here
Soon we'll look back with a smile
Can't wait to talk about this year
