Stepped outside for the first time in days
been solitary in so many ways
when I pull back the screen, feels like I’m sixteen
found an emotion that I’ve kept locked away
Campfire smoke and apple trees
Are bringing up old memories
it rises up when I’m tired and alone
I wish that I could come home
it’s only been phone calls for awhile
spent too much time wishing you were here
soon we’ll look back with a smile
can’t wait to talk about this year
i pretend that I’m not stuck in LA
I try a recipe that my mom used to make
But I made way too much, so I save some for lunch
Even though it doesn’t taste quite the same
It’s just food in cellophane
but I’m nostalgic anyway
it rises up when I’m tired and alone
I wish that I could come home
it’s only been phone calls for awhile
spent too much time wishing you were here
soon we’ll look back with a smile
can’t wait to talk about this year
