[Verse 1]
We said, "Let's not grow apart"
We're a phone call away from being where each other are
I know, we're all scared but we'll hide it
We're scared of leaving home
He said, "This is only the start"
He's headed to college and a girl's got his heart
Oh I know, he's scared but he'll hide it
He's scared of leaving home

[Chorus]
We're just kids
We're so far from knowing the frightening life ahead behind the doors in reach to open
Split paths and move on, to escape what once was
Just to find out what we missed as kids

[Verse 2]
He said that he doesn't know what he wants
He goes back and forth, maybe a pilot in the air force
He's probably changed the most, watched his communication grow
But his daddy's got a hold on him
We're scared he'll never leave home
That's a joke
Moving on to my other friend
He's dreaming big, got bigger plans than this stupid town we live in
I know he's not a bit scared but we are
We're all scared he's leaving home
[Chorus]
We're just kids
We're so far from knowing the frightening life ahead behind the doors in reach to open
Split paths and move on, to escape what once was
Just to find out what we missed as kids

We're just kids
We're so far from knowing the frightening life ahead behind the doors in reach to open
Split paths and move on, to escape what once was
Just to find out what we missed as kids
