Lyrics
[catchy intro]
Verse 1:
In the glow of a streetlight, I recall,
Paper planes in the rain, never cared if they'd fall.
Laughing over cold soup, skies so wide,
In the playground of youth, where our dreams learned to fly.
Pre-Chorus:
Now the days rush by in a blur of gray,
Searching for colors that faded away.
Chorus:
It’s just a lunch, but I can’t take a bite,
Memories on my plate, under fluorescent light.
Where did the flavors of my childhood go?
It’s just a lunch, but it feels like more.
Verse 2:
Office walls close in, ties that bind,
Gourmet meals, yet I long for that taste left behind.
Echoes of laughter, a distant chime,
In the cafeteria line, where joy was mine.
Pre-Chorus:
Every bite a reminder of what I miss,
Savoring the simplicity, the ignorance of bliss.
Chorus:
It’s just a lunch, but I can’t take a bite,
Memories on my plate, under fluorescent light.
Where did the flavors of my childhood go?
It’s just a lunch, but it feels like more.
Bridge:
Can I find the recipe, to stir the past,
Mix in the joy, make the flavors last?
A sprinkle of innocence, a dash of delight,
In every lunch, find the appetite.
Pre-Chorus:
I'll chew on the moments, swallow the sun,
Digesting the days when I freely run.
A sprinkle of innocence, a dash of delight,
In every lunch, find the appetite.
Pre-Chorus:
I'll chew on the moments, swallow the sun,
Digesting the days when I freely run.
Chorus:
It’s just a lunch, but I can’t take a bite,
Memories on my plate, under fluorescent light.
Where did the flavors of my childhood go?
It’s just a lunch, but it feels like more.
It’s just a lunch, but I can’t take a bite,
Memories on my plate, under fluorescent light.
Where did the flavors of my childhood go?
It’s just a lunch, but it feels like more.
