    Story Behind the Song
    my family moved from a small village in central scotland to a small village in the north east of scotland when i was 10. at first i was really excited about it but as "moving day" approached i became more apprehensive. i guess in the end i didn't want to move after all but it was too late...

    Lyrics
    it's late September and the day is finally here
    we've waited all summer for it to arrive
    my excitement's tinged with a little fear
    we're packing up and moving to another life

    it's moving day
    take a long last look around and hold it in my hand
    it's moving day
    feeling a sadness that at ten years old I don't quite understand

    our house is as empty as the day we moved in
    almost as if we were never here at all
    strange how a building can get under your skin
    even that orange paint on my bedroom wall

    and that was the year of who killed jr
    and a triumph toledo was our family car
    we’d never find that innocence again
    and that was the year my childhood would end

    years later I’d come back to look around
    so few changes here in miller park
    images of yesterday can still be found
    simple memories I hold in my heart

    it's moving day
    take a long last look around and hold it in my hand
    it's moving day
    feeling a sadness that at ten years old I don't quite understand
    I don’t quite understand
