Here's a little story
A little something new
About a girl
That you thought that you knew
She's got a hole in her heart
That needs some mending
Here's a little story
A little serenade
About a girl
Who needed to be brave
To look for a story
With a better ending

She said
"Oh, oh, oh
Oh, I gotta go
Find somewhere
Where the skies are bluer"
So oh, oh oh
Only if I'd have known
That I could've been
There sooner

Here's a little story
A little something strange
About a boy
Who needed a change
He'd been waiting his whole life
For some adventure
Here's a little ditty
So come on and sing along
About two people
Who needed a song
To tell them to change their lives
For the better

They said
"Oh, oh, oh
Oh, I gotta go
Find somewhere
Where the skies are bluer"
So oh, oh oh
Only if I'd have known
That I could've been
There sooner

Oh, you can't wait your life away
Waiting for the perfect day
And you can't wait to be the hero
When the people are knocking at your door
If you need to make a change
You can find it your own way
Trade the past
Just to see what's in store

So oh, oh, oh
Oh, I gotta go
Find somewhere
Where the skies are bluer
So oh, oh oh
Only if I'd have known
That I could've been
There sooner
