This park and these houses
Old streets I have walked
Everything dear, will it be here
One day when I am returning?

My friends will get married
Have children and homes
It sounds so nice, well-planned and wise
Never expecting surprises

I wonder, it's frightening
Leaving now, is that the right thing?
I wonder, it scares me
But who the the hell am I if I don't leave it?

I'm not a coward
Oh no, I'll be strong
One chance in a lifetime
Yes I will take it, it can't go wrong

My friends and my family
This dull little town
Buses I've missed, boys that I've kissed
Everything old and familiar

I wonder, it's frightening
Leaving now, is that the right thing?
I wonder, it scares me
But who the the hell am I if I don't leave and try?

I'm not a coward
Oh no, I'll be strong
One chance in a lifetime
Yes I will take it, oh yes
Yes I will take it, it can't go wrong
