A Pantoum of Leaving

It's time to go and leave this place 
Adventures are at the door 
We want this moment to come forever 
And now it's finally here 

Adventures are at the door 
It's scary to even think about them 
And now it's finally here 
No more time left to spare 

It's scary to even think about them 
The candles are going out 
No more time left to spare 
I'm at the door and paralyzed 

The candles are going out 
We want this moment to come forever 
I'm at the door and paralyzed 
It's time to go and leave this place.
