I grew up with the sun
It shined down on me
Down on me
Those were the desert days
They seem so far away
They seem so far away
Now I remember that September like it was yesterday
There was a grand in the lobby
He heard me play
I know he heard me play
Mourning is mending
Excuse my lamenting
I've stood below that desert sun
It burned bright as ever
But didn't shine like I remembered
Those were the desert days
They seem so far away
They seem so far away
Oh
Oh, I wanna go home
But I wanna grow up
Oh, I wanna go home
I hate feeling stuck
Oh, I wanna be free
I wanna plant my tree
And I want to know love
And I want to be me
And I don't wanna leave
Hey
