LYRICS:
The skylark says I'm older now cause I've been living alone - That no matter how hard I try I can't make my old house a home - But I said I knew myself best when I was young - And I thought I'd use the rest to keep my home-grown - And he said, "Little battles came and went" - "And my memories laid to rest" - "But the time you spent a kid" - "Leaves you broken in" - The skylark says I can't go back to the old days - That time must pass and every life runs a rapid pace - But I thought I'd squeezed that illusion dry - But in my memories I've kept the dead days alive - And it said, "Little battles bring you home" - "But it's time to let them go" - "And the way you stay on that vagabond train is by getting on board" - "So get right on boy" - "And say ooh skylark call my name and rest my head in shame" - "Say ooh skylark give me grace I'm falling on my way" - Little battles came and went - And my memories laid to rest - But the time I spent a kid - Leaves me broken in - And the hardest part of life - Is the rate we move through time - And the only way you can stay alive - Is through the art of getting by - The art of love and the art fight - The art of good ones by your side - The art of striving to survive - And say ooh skylark call my name and rest my head in shame - And say ooh skylark give me grace, I'm falling on my way
