I've slept in the same bed since I was three years old A white frame, canopy, and a butterfly that's lilac and gold So many things have changed throughout my room, but that one thing's stayed the same Now I may never sleep in the same bed again The playset in my backyard was my home for imagination A pirate ship or palace Whatever the sun rays of that day said to me As I sat up high I dreamt of a life far from my backyard But a city replaced the playground while my fantasy was barred Oh you never realize what you're gonna miss 'Til you're packing up a cardboard box And not everything fits Some memories are just too big to fit outside your door But if you can't leave a few things behind what's moving on good for There are people, there are pets There's gladness, there's regrets There's a front door standing open There's a storm door, you almost miss the glass You can watch the world from inside Or turn the knob and leave behind your past Sometimes what's right isn't what's easiest The sweet, cozy, red brick house is all I've really known It heard the bickering of family's presence And quiet hums when I was home alone Though the walls are painted over deep inside it hasn't changed But with one less person under its roof will its undertone feel strange Oh you never realize what you're gonna miss 'Til you're packing up a cardboard box And not everything fits Some memories are just too big to fit outside your door But if you can't leave a few things behind what's moving on good for No, if you can't leave a few things behind what's moving on good for
