From the recording Home
As time passes, the boy realizes that it’s over. She’s gone and he won’t see her again. It sinks in
that he has to move on without her. She’s somewhere else far away and he’s left in his little town that changes drastically as the colder months come on. He wonders what it’s like in SanFrancisco. He wonders what she’s doing and what she’s thinking about. The sting of lost love and a future without his perfect match beside him sets in and he wonders what life will be like moving forward.
Lyrics
Bruce Lee
I’m guessing that it’s over based upon the notion that I haven’t heard a word at all
And I’m starting to see that all that I believed was destined from the start to fall
I guess I should have known that one week in the summer was only that and nothing more
But when you’re trying to forget it builds up your regrets and you feel it in your deepest core
I know the old saying that I should be happy to have felt it than to not at all
So I think about the week I feel into my dream and the hurting takes a moment to stall
CHORUS
Does it get cold there?
I heard there’s no snow there
Do you feel bold there
All alone
I guess I’ll grow old here
Work on my soul here
Build my own home here
On my own
I feel it in my body like I did karate and I took a few hits from Bruce Lee
But I know that it will pass and I will make it back to being mostly me
Trying to believe in everything I see is like running through a giant brick wall
I put my head down and don’t make a sound If I push it I know it will fall
