Well, the rain came down, when the night came out
And you always thought it would get much easier
Take your old man's advice, and prepare your young heart
'Cause when the war, it shakes, well, the light it starts
We're miles and miles from the promised land, dear
But, I swear to god, we're already here
Take your old man's advice, and prepare your young heart
Take your old man's advice, and prepare your young heart
The weight of the world is resting on your back
And everyone you know says it gets much cheesier
When the weight of the world falls slack
Kick up your feet and let's move forever
I'll set the sail if you lift the tether
All of the times that we've shared together
All of the sounds, in all kinds of weather
This is the way it should be forever
This is the way it could be forever
Well, the world is a wild and a wondrous place (well, the world is wild, my love)
And your heart, my love, it has no need to break right now
(And your heart, my love, has no need to break)
Shake your old man's advice and prepare your young heart
(Shake your old man's advice and prepare your young heart)
'Cause when the war it shakes, well, the light it starts
The weight of the world is resting on your back
And everyone you know says it gets much easier
When the weight of the world falls slack
Let's kick up our feet and let's move forever
I'll set the sail if you lift the tether
All of the times that we've shared together
All of the sounds, in all kinds of weather
This is the way it should be forever
This is the way it could be forever
This is the way it should be forever
This is the way it could be forever
And what are we
What are we, what are we
What are we waiting for?
For the band
The band, the band
The band to play us off?
I said, "What are we?
What are we, what are we
What are we waiting for?"
For the band, the band, the band
The band to play us off?
Kick up your feet and let's move forever
I'll set the sail if you lift the tether
All of the times that we've shared together
All of the sounds in all kinds of weather
This is the way it should be forever
This is the way it could be forever
This is the way it should be for
