Where I'm Coming From

Look at Mr. Born To Run
Think this town ain't big enough for you
I know I'm just your grandpa
But, don't forget I was your age once too
To know the good you got, sometimes you gotta go
You think you hate it here, but trust me, boy, you don't

It might take you a couple more trips around the sun
But one day you'll find out
There's a lot more to a simple life than you thought it was
Sometimes, it takes a town to raise you
To make you what you're made of
When it's time to settle down, plant roots
And when you do, you'll know where I'm coming from
And you'll come back around

Well, look at Mr. All Grown Up
Blinked an eye and the years added up
I'm seeing more me in you
Paving your own road runs in your blood
I'd never tell you not to do the things you love
But what you're chasing now won't always be enough, oh

It might take you a couple more trips around the sun
But one day you'll find out
There's a lot more to a simple life than you thought it was
Sometimes, it takes a town to raise you
To make you what you're made of
When it's time to settle down, plant roots
And when you do, you'll know where I'm coming from
And you'll come back around
Yeah, you'll come back around

Look at Mr. Born To Run
Missing you, wishing he could call you up
Just to hear you tell me that you told me so

It might take me a couple more trips around the sun
But I've been finding out
There's a lot more to a simple life than I thought it was
Sometimes, it takes a town to raise you
To make you what you're made of
When it's time to settle down, plant roots
And when you do, you'll know where I'm coming from
You'll come back around, yeah, you will
You'll come back around, uh-yeah

Plant roots, and when you do
You'll know where I'm coming from
