In the evening when the storefronts close I watch as everybody goes away But I want to stay I stare down the empty streets aglow Wonder at the windows and homes Alone In the morning kids are off to school Yellow buses all the rules remain the same Stay in line be kind Wait your turn but try to win Be good like you should You gotta walk so far Lose who you are Fall apart To get that brand new start
When you meet a stranger down the road Say hello but all the same Don't get too close That's a lesson we've all been taught To protect what you've got And so you stay away These roads are open and wide There's room for everyone to move side by side So it's a shame it's a pity In every town or city That we learn to walk in single file You gotta walk so far Lose who you are Fall apart To get that brand new start
No one tells you how to grow They teach you everything but what you need to know
