One day I'll be wiser when I'm older
Once I was shyer with a smolder
Once you used to sigh upon my shoulder
One day I will fly away with wonder
And I'll say
Don't look back when they tell you to
Don't look down as you are rising
Don't hold back when they say let loose
I see you crossing the line
You're right on my horizon
So many days have turned to years
So many ways can turn to fear
Why's it so easy to hold on
To things that are already gone?
One day I'll be wiser when I'm older
Once I was lower now I'm higher
One day I will die a toy soldier
One day I will sigh upon your shoulder
And you'll say
Don't look back when they tell you to
Don't look down when the waters rising
Don't hold back when they say let loose
I see you coming over the line
You're right on my horizon
One day I was younger and I saw it clear
I knew all of the ways that I'd get out of here
One day I'll be older without any fear
I can see you cross the line
You're right on my horizon
Don't look back when they tell you to
Don't look down when the waters rising
Don't hold back when they say let loose
I see you coming over the line
Don't look back when they tell you to
Don't look down when the waters rising
Don't hold back when they say let loose
I see you coming over the line
And now I see you smiling
You're right on my horizon
