Stand Still Lyrics by Annika (CA)

Stand Still: Side A

2022

[Verse 1]
Every kid just wants to turn eighteen
Get into a bar, drive their own car and make sure everybody sees
I was counting down the days 'til I could leave this town
But thinking 'bout it now
[Chorus]
I was so afraid of settling
Always looking for the next best thing
I tried to get away, thinking if I stayed
I'd end up ordinary
Always aimed at moving targets
But the thing that hits the hardest
Is the time that you miss, when you're busy chasing a 10-year dream
Turns out the moments that don't seem to matter are the ones that will
And If I could go back
I'd just stand still
[Verse 2]
I took my shot and I got my city lights
Spent a lot of years and tears trying to get it right
I missed barbеques and nights with you and coffee after church
But really what's it worth?
[Chorus]
I was so afraid of sеttling
Always looking for the next best thing
I tried to get away, thinking if I stayed
I'd end up ordinary
Always aimed at moving targets
But the thing that hits the hardest
Is the time that you miss, when you're busy chasing a 10-year dream
Turns out the moments that don't seem to matter are the ones that will
And If I could go back
I'd just stand still
[Bridge]
Before you know it, your parents have gotten old
The dog's moving slower, and the neighbours house has sold
Time moves on, and people change while you're busy making plans
I didn't understand
[Chorus]
I was so afraid of settling
Always looking for the next best thing
I tried to get away, thinking if I stayed
I'd end up ordinary
Always aimed at moving targets
But the thing that hits the hardest
Is the time that you miss, when you're busy chasing a 10-year dream
Turns out the moments that don't seem to matter are the ones that will
And If I could go back
Oooh if I could go back
I'd just stand still
