All Around - Surfaces

I was late for class, almost lost my bag

Missed the bus stop down by the railroad tracks

Singin' stop this train, like John in '08

Or is this my fate?

'Cause this world won’t change

Told my mama I could see all this road in front of me

She said, «Where you gonna go if this isn’t what it seems?

I said, «My heart is in this sound

And these kids need light right now»

Before the sun goes down

I’ma take this love and spread it all around, all around

Before the sun goes down

I’ma take this love and spread it all around, all around

Before the sun goes down

I’ma take this love and spread it all around

Take back my time from these books I don’t write

And start on my own shelf with some stories to tell (Like)

Remember last year when we couldn’t leave town?

So we stayed up all night watching stars go 'round

And my car broke down on the side of the road

Didn’t tell anybody, kept it on the low

And my pop told me, better get your degree

Make your life more easy, you can’t do everything

But my heart is in this sound

And these kids need light right now

Before the sun goes down

I’ma take this love and spread it all around, all around

Before the sun goes down

I’ma take this love and spread it all around, all around

Before the sun goes down

I’ma take this love and spread it
