Lyrics

Nana

I never thought for once I?d see the day come
When you?d pack all your bags and say goodbye,
I guess I?m really at a loss for words,
But don?t be in such a hurry, dear, I?ll try.

I know you didn?t really mean those mean things
Like saying that I?d always tied you down
And when you called me an ass I didn?t take it personally
?Cause I know how you really feel deep down.

But Nana, will you be alright, a million miles away?
Nana, will you be alright, a million miles away?

What will I say to all our friends?
I?ll just tell ?em you?re alright
And that you write me every night
And that someday soon you will be coming home, home to me.

I know you say you?re going for the schooling
And that you really want to find out who you are
But I want you to know that if there is another man,
I?ll understand?-okay, I?ve gone too far.

But Nana, will you be alright, a million miles away?
Nana, will you be alright, a million miles away?

What will I say to my mom?
I?ll just tell her you?re alright
And that you write me every night
And that someday soon you will be coming home, home to me.

Are you sure you?d rather walk to the station?
?Cause I?d be glad to take you there you know,
But no, I guess you want to say goodbye in privacy,
Okay, okay, I know you?ve got to go.

But Nana, will you be alright, a million miles away?
Nana, will you be alright, a million miles away?
