20 Years From Now

Your hands are shaking, are you scared?
I don’t know why it’s only you and I alone
And your face is like a portrait of my own
Twenty years from now

You seem frustrated with the world
In my haze, I’ve let this craziness continue
For far too many days and nights, somehow
Hope I’m not like this twenty years from now

Where does your smile go when you are down?
I searched for it for years, but I’ve given up now
You say wait a while and we’re all fine now
How hard it is twenty years from now
Twenty years from now

While you were far away from home
To what extent were you content with strangers doorways?
That barely offered shelter from the rain
In twenty years is this all that you’ve gained?

You’ve tried so hard to make ends meet
When you arrived you felt alive, you were deluded
Believed you had the world beneath your feet
In fact, you broke you back for twenty years

Where does your smile go when you are down?
I searched for it for years, but I’ve given up now
You say wait a while and we’re all fine now
How hard it is twenty years from now
Twenty years from now
Twenty years from now
Twenty years from now

I know
How much we mean to you
And I hope
That they love me
Like we love you
Love me
Like we love you

Where does your smile go when you are down?
I searched for it for years, but I’ve given up now
You say wait a while and we’re all fine now
How hard it is twenty years from now

Twenty years from now
Twenty years from now
Twenty years from now
Twenty years from now
