LYRICS:

Sunlight comes streaming in through my window

Green leaves all dance in the breeze, but

I’m just stuck in my house all day long

I can’t go and do what I please

Yeah, I could FaceTime

Or do homework online

But it just ain’t the same

I wanna see my friends

And play with my band

I wanna eat dinner at my grandma’s place

Here I sit in my house feeling so blue

I’m missing you

Birds sing their song and fly outside my window

I see the squirrels scamper by, but

I just lay here on my bed looking at them

They play outside, why can’t I?

Yeah, I could FaceTime

Or do homework online

But it just ain’t the same

I wanna go to shows

Watch baseball eat nachos

I wanna garden at my grandma’s place

Here I sit in my house feeling so blue

I’m missing you

Yet now I have time to learn to crochet

Reading books all day long, and

Make noodles, pies, and ice cream

To stuff my face, even writing new songs

Guess I could FaceTime

Or do homework online

But it just ain’t the same

I wanna see my friends

And play with my band

I wanna eat dinner

At my grandma’s place

Here I sit in my house feeling so blue

I’m missing you

Here I sit in my house singing to you

We’ll make it through
