Becoming Home

Am I too late to say goodbye to my childhood home Close my eyes, see the trees flower to fruit in the autumn Am I too late to become the person I wanted to be when I was five Now that I won't be coming back home I'll never take my girl down the river where I dove after frogs Or to sit beneath the tree where I wrote my first ever love songs This is a part of me passing away, one you wont be getting to know Now that you wont be coming with me back home Can I stop the time from ticking on These memories are dug so deep in me They've helped me to stand tall So who am I if they're gone Change comes and the river flows us back to square one Wonder why I can't remember much from the early years My memory is an Apple TV screensaver photos floating through an ether From the first steps to prom night its all in the cloud And that's where it keeps (cause there's no turning back now) And when I get older, if I have kids of my own And they're digging for worms and swimming in the pool with their floaties on I'll get to start over, see myself in their youth Find myself making something they can be coming back to (Yeah they can come back to) Can I stop the time from ticking on These memories are dug so deep in me They've helped me to stand tall So who am I if they're gone Change comes and the river flows us back to square one (Change comes and the river flows us back to square one) Oh, I could be at home with this microphone in an empty bar Oh, I could be at home all alone with my thoughts Yeah, I could be at home on train leaving Rome with you in my arms Oh, hold me in your arms and I'm home I'm becoming home I'm becoming home
