The TV's on and I look around
And nobody is watching
They have all gone to live their lives
I sit down on the couch and I
Finally start to realise
Lately living hasn't even crossed my mind
I used to live sometimes
I used to live sometimes
Repeat intro tab
I walk out the door and look up
And everybody's flying
But I can't seem to get up off the ground
I strain my eyes to catch a glimpse
But they're all off and soaring
I guess I'll wait for them to come back down
I used to fly sometimes
I used to fly sometimes
I loved hearing about the good old days and remember when
You teaching me about love and that there's nothing like a friend
Because even though the good old days, they came and went
I'll hang on to every word until the end
Repeat intro tab
I know that you've sacrificed
And did it all for me
I hope you know you've never let me down
I know it wasn't easy
To let me go into the world
I hope the man that I've become has made you proud
I hope you're proud of me sometimes
I hope you're proud of me sometimes
