World So Dear

It's just happening too early
This is not the right time
For the world to fall over
Strike out a flat line

'Cause this world is ancient
But still feels so new
So much has happened
And there's so much to do

All our lives are lived out there
In grief and in cheer
Who could ever be ready to leave
A world so dear

A train took me back to
The place I was raised
Where I laughed and I played
Spent most of my days
And these faces and places
I know it can't last
A fast end could blast away
Eras gone past

But I love every second
I spend right here
I will never be ready to leave
A world so dear

Swallowed whole by the ocean
Eaten up by the sun
How I long for a river
To skate away on
But words often fail me
And can be untrue
For all that I don't know
There's one thing I do

Our lives are lived right there
Right in the one
Home that is here
And it's clear
Nothing's more dear
