New Roots

I knew that something was changing,
You couldn't pass it by,
My steps were rapidly fading,
A feeling I can't hide,

Could see my surroundings,
Closing in on me,
I could see the distance fading,
And I just had to leave,

And I couldn't help but notice,
I didn't know anywhere else,
New and I couldn't ignore this,
I said,

I need New Roots,
New Moves,
New Roots,
New Views.

The stars above us were frozen,
No destined line in sight,
Drops of rain stopped in motion,
Up in the midnight sky,

Could see my surroundings,
Closing in on me,
I could see the distance fading,
And I just had to leave,

And I couldn't help but notice,
I didn't know anywhere else,
New and I couldn't ignore this,
I said,

I need New Roots,
New Moves,
New Roots,
New Views.

And I couldn't help but notice,
I didn't know anywhere else,
New and I couldn't ignore this,
I said,

I need New Roots….
