Hallway Goodbye

[Verse 1]
My name tag’s off
My desk looks small
I drew that star
On the bathroom wall

Last bell rang
And I froze in place
Sixth grade fading
From my face

[Pre-Chorus]
I still know where
The crayons stayed
The tiny chairs
The games we played

Now my backpack’s packed
And I’m not sure why
I’m proud and sad
At the same time

[Chorus]
I’m not little anymore
(I'm not little anymore)
I’m walking that hall
I’m walking that hall

Sixth grade goodbye
Hold on real tight
I’m growing up now
But I’ll miss this light

[Verse 2]
The library door
The lunch tray line
The posters peeled
At a corner sign

The playground dust
On my old shoes
Every little thing
I’m scared to lose

[Pre-Chorus]
But my heart says go
Even if it shakes
New halls, new names
New rules to make

I’ll turn the page
With my chin held high
Still looking back
With watery eyes

[Chorus]
I’m not little anymore
(I'm not little anymore)
I’m walking that hall
I’m walking that hall

Sixth grade goodbye
Hold on real tight
I’m growing up now
But I’ll miss this light

[Bridge]
What if I trip
What if I’m shy
What if I miss
That easy sky

Then I take a breath
And step on through
Elementary home
I loved you

[Final Chorus]
I’m not little anymore
(I'm not little anymore)
I’m walking that hall
I’m walking that hall

Sixth grade goodbye
Hold on real tight
I’m growing up now
And I’ll be alright

I’m not little anymore
(I'm not little anymore)
I’m walking that hall
I’m walking that hall
