It Won’t Always Be Like This

I remember how I couldn't wait to get out of my hometown

Now I'm looking for every excuse to go back on the weekend

I can still see the front porch balcony

Every time I leave, Grandpa waving back at me

Wish I coulda told myself back then

It won't always be like this

It won't always be like this

I know nothing lasts forever

But sometimes, I still forget

It won't always be like this

I remember hearing the door slam, twenty-two, didn't have a clue

Who I was or who I could trust and who were my real friends

I had big wings, but didn't have a sky, just a front row view

Of everybody flying high, waiting for my time

Wish I coulda told myself back then

It won't always be like this

It won't always be like this

Know the heart won't ache forever

No matter how hard it gets

It won't always be like this, no

Looking at you, looking back at me

All I wanna do is make another memory

And love you like it's the end

'Cause it won't always be like this

It won't always be like this

No, it won't always be like this

I know it won't always be like this

I wish love would last forever

So I could live it all again

It won't always be like this

It won't always be like this
