By the time you read this I'll be
Somewhere over thirty thousand feet
Always knew this day was coming
Ever since you put the dream in me
And I know that you're prone to worry
It's the way you've always been
But I hope you know the way you raised me
Made me tougher than you think
I'll be okay on my own
Now that I'm leaving home, I need you to know
That I'll still call on Sunday mornings
Can't look in your eyes, or I'll change my mind
So I wrote it all down for you
In this little note, I'm giving you hope
That no matter where I go
You'll always be my home
I hope you know I'm gonna miss you
And all your Friday night advice
I know you think I never listened
But I always knew that you were right
That's why I'll be fine on my own
Now that I'm leaving home, I need you to know
That I'll still call on Sunday mornings
Can't look in your eyes, or I'll change my mind
So I wrote it all down for you
In this little note, I'm giving you hope
That no matter where I go
You'll always be my home
I'll be back before you know it
'Cause I'll miss the rain and snow and
Mostly, I'll miss you
I'll be back before you know it
Couldn't say it, so I wrote it
But I swear, I'll see you soon
Now that I'm leaving home, I need you to know
That all of me will always need you
And you will always be
My home
