Vancouver

One day, I'll find my way

I'll buy a plane ticket and I'll fly away

One day, it won't be the same

I'll leave this old place where I stay today

West coast winds in my future

I'll pack my bags and look for something newer

Brand new sights couldn't come much sooner

I'll leave this place to find Vancouver

This town feels small like a hotel room

And I've already been told which room I check into

I'm just a kid with a suitcase full of dreams

But I can hope, no, I can cope

By chasin' thoughts of what could be

I'll save my dreams

Like they're coins in a jar

Oh, it can't be that far

I'll move on forward for a taste of a thrill

Got a fire in my soul, I refuse to sit still

Same roads and the same old sights

Same grey days and the same long nights

Sometimes you need a change

So, I'll save that change in a piggy bank, yeah

With my heart set high and my dreams in view

Vancouver, I'm coming for you

Amber trees and cerulean skies and

A front-row seat to an early sunrise and

Open seas, while I go to lock eyes on

City streets along a mountain horizon

I change gears but I still can't steer

Packing fears, drying tears, from those of yesteryears

They say it's cold, but there's a fire in me

'Cause when you're ready to leave, you'll handle any degree

I'll leave this town

And this world that I've known

For a brand new unknown

I know where I'll go, and I know what I'll do

Vancouver, I'm coming for you

Maybe it's rough

Maybe it's hard

I'll find my way

I'll play my cards

I'm moving at frenetic speeds

It will be me who takes the lead

I hear the stories, and I've seen on TV

Of a life that's waitin', and it's waitin' for me

Where I can be who I want to be

And skies are blue

Vancouver, I'm coming for you
