I can’t wait to see you lace your shoes
Things were hazy, but that all stopped with you
We pass by headstones on a walk
I overthink something then I forget I should talk
I can’t wait to see you go to school
I hate that this will happen, but I know that it will happen
Someone’s gonna be cruel
I can’t believe the stork didn’t need a crane
One then two then three of you, I'm working to be better
So that you get to do the same
We counted dark spots on the moon
The stars were barely visible, I know that I should let you
Count them far from this city roof

Cause the sunshine pours out of your mouth and eyes
Cause the sunshine spills out your mouth and eyes
And out onto the floor and I
Can’t see nothing anymore
No, I can’t see nothing anymore
No, I can’t see anything no more
It fills the sky all the way from the floor
And I
And I don’t bother looking away from it
And I can’t see nothing anymore
No, I can’t see nothing anymore
No, I can’t see nothing anymore
Cause it fills the sky all the way from the floor

I can’t wait to see you go to school
I can’t make out all the words you say
Your sister just makes noises like some sort of bird
That I just cannot seem to place
I spend too much time out on the deck
Staring out at nothing, while nothing at all
Blankly stares right back
And I hope there’s still something left for you
I can’t wait to see which paths you choose
So that you can see animals
Far away from the stupid city zoo

Cause the sunshine pours out of your mouth and eyes
Cause the sunshine spills out your mouth and eyes
And out all on the floor and I
Can’t see nothing anymore
No, I can’t see nothing anymore
Well I can’t see nothing anymore
It fills the sky all the way from the floor
And I
And I don’t bother looking away from
And I can’t see nothing anymore
No, I can’t see nothing anymore
No, I can’t see nothing anymore
Cause it fills the sky all the way from the floor

And I can’t wait to see you go to school
Well I can’t wait to see you lace your shoes
(I can’t wait to see you go to school)
(I can’t wait to see which paths you choose)
And I can’t wait to see you go to school
(I can’t wait to see you give ‘em hell)
And I can’t wait to see you go to school
I can’t wait to see you lace your shoes
