Movies About Animals - The Last Autumn I Spent in Normal Lyrics

The last autumn I spent in my hometown
I was incredibly alive
We said goodbye to summer
And I fell in love for the last time
So I drew out my limitations to find the reasons I was leaving
This town just wasn't big enough for the both of us
My apathy and I just couldn't take it
Or maybe I just gave a shit and had to embrace it

So now I keep wondering what I'm missing out on
The bonfires and late night drives
Our hoodies carried us to winter
As we refused to stay inside
Wondering what I'm missing out on
The bonfires and late night drives
Our hoodies carried us to winter
As we refused to stay inside

So I made my way to Chicago to live beneath the city lights
But I kept thinking of starry nights in Normal
And that diner before sunrise
My lust for progress was waning like leaves in their decline
Surrendering themselves to their inevitable demise
I didn't know it at the time but I loved it
It didn't take me very long to know that I missed it

And now I keep wondering what I'm missing out on
The bonfires and late night drives
Our hoodies carried us to winter
As we refused to stay inside
Wondering what I'm missing out on
The bonfires and late night drives
Our hoodies carried us to winter
As we refused to stay inside

When the lights go off, and the band dissolves
And the empty rooms and barstools
Only come to life through a clear mind's eye
May you never lose your sight
In the corner of your room
In the back of your mind
In the town where you grew up
Our memories will stay alive
In the corner of your room
In the back of your mind
In the town where you grew up
Our memories will stay alive
In the corner of your room
In the back of your mind
