Seventh Wonder - Beyond Today (Farewell, Pt. 3) lyrics

I can hear them through the window
Singing out my name
They all laugh and sound so happy
Why so happy? I don’t know

If I fail, if I don’t make it
Will their song remain the same?
Or will the echoes fade
To make these streets sound
Silent once again?

They say I’m the one
But what if I’m not the one
Who can save us from the end of the world?
Even though I must go
It’s important to know:
I am scared, but I won’t let it show

What if I never do what I did
In my dreams so many times?
And I wonder, will I ever say

'Hey, if you tell me yours
I’ll tell you mine'
A perfect stranger in a ticket line
Just like in the movies
Will he put his hand in mine?

And will I ever dance prom night away?
And throw my hat up high on graduation day?
I think it’s safe to say the
Best is yet to come

There’s somewhere beyond today

I can hear her in the kitchen
Crying out my name
And how it breaks her heart
This brand new start will tear
All she knows apart

I can hear him in the hallway
Fallen to his knees
And the always strong and silent
One’s not silent anymore

Will someone ask my dad
For his daughter’s hand
To make her princess of the promised land?
Just like in the movies
Will I feel those butterflies?

Will I grow up to make my mother proud
Despite my rebel years when I
Was way too loud?
I think it’s safe to say the
Best is yet to come

There’s somewhere beyond today
