Never Be Far

Some take the train all the way to LA

Some never get off the tracks

I'd never thought I'd live to see the day

I'd say, "Goodbye, Carlsbad"

That was the roof where I smoked my first cigarette

Praying I wouldn't get caught

I'm still the ghost of that teenage silhouette

Growing up's not what I thought

Even long after I'm gone

This town, those streets hold a piece of me there

Love-drunk, sixteen

Oh, I promise, wherever I carry your heart with me

I'll never be far, never be far

Hold on for now, it's not forever

I swear I'll make you proud

Oh, I promise, wherever I carry your heart with me

I'll never be far, never be far from home

Senior year, saying goodbye to Sage Creek

Felt my heart break in those halls

I asked out a girl and they laughed at me

I swear nobody talks like those walls

First time I realized I wasn't invincible

Broke a bone tryna show off

Names on the cast prove I wasn't invisible

First taste of fame that I got

Even long after I'm gone

This town, those streets hold a piece of me there

Love-drunk, sixteen

Oh, I promise, wherever I carry your heart with me

I'll never be far, never be far

Hold on for now, it's not forever

I swear I'll make you proud

Oh, I promise, wherever I carry your heart with me

I'll never be far, never be far from

Home, home

Home, home

Wherever I carry your heart with me

I'll never be far, never be far from

The place that raised me

Ones who change me

I would not be who I am without

This town, those streets hold a piece of me there

Love-drunk, sixteen

Oh, I promise, wherever I carry your heart with me

I'll never be far, I'll never be far (Hey)

Hold on for now, it's not forever

I swear I'll make you proud

Oh, I promise, wherever I carry your heart with me

I'll never be far, never be far from home
