Lyrics

I’m facing the changes
But missing the past
I’m still learning to smile from behind the mask

I’ve been calling my mama
We talk every day
Way more than we used to, It’s funny that way

This feels like the time to make a new start
We’re closer together, the farther apart

Used to dress like a monkey
In my cubicle cage
Now I’m working from home on a new kind of stage

I’ll see you on facetime
We’ll have a drink or two
I never drank this much, Or seen this much of you

This feels like the time to make a new start
We’re closer together, the farther apart
This feels like the time to make a new start
We’re closer together, the farther apart

It’s so unprecedented, that we reconnected, and reinvented hope
(I’m feeling it’s something I should do, so I’m reaching out,
I’m reaching out to you)

We’re closer together, the farther apart
This feels like the time to make a new start
This feels like the time to make a new start
We’re closer together, the farther apart
