lyrics

Long ago, in a summer breeze
I got to choose when I fell asleep
I always knew it would be alright
My dad would come tuck me in at night, and that was my life

A shallow bay, and a big old hill
Was where we’d play, in our brighter days
When I lost the way, I would be so thrilled
Because I felt safe, and I loved that place
I still love that place!

None of this will be the same
Given time and the fading day
Brand new houses, brand new roads
I can feel my head explode
They’ve found my grove
Now it's a road

Prone to wander, and I’m prone to thought
I’ll cycle backwards, and I’ll get so lost
But in that forest, and upon that hill
I’ll reconnect there, I know I always will
I know I always will

Though none of it can be the same
I’d never go back or change a day
Through moving forward, or moving on
This serves to keep my Nanoose in song
This is my song
Always my song
