lyrics

We used to laugh and play
Every day was a golden age
Imagination was all the rage
Life was defined by our dreams

Stayed up all night making comic books
With superheroes fighting crooks
Writing songs with monster hooks
The world was bigger than anything could possibly be

We used to dream
But now, we only sleep
We used to dream back then

But time keeps moving forward
I keep losing hold of
Every single thing that I love
Maybe I should give up
Wish I could go back to the start start start start
Wish I could go back to the start start start start
Babe, you know I'm falling apart

The future held on to everything
Be whatever we wanted to be
Riding bikes up and down the street
But all that melted away

The future killed possibility
Potential severed right at the knee
Oh, I can't possibly believe
That we've said everything we're meant to say

We used to dream
But now, we only sleep
We used to dream back then

But time keeps moving forward
I keep losing hold of
Every single thing that I love
Maybe I should give up
Wish I could go back to the start start start start
Wish I could go back to the start start start start
Babe, you know I'm falling apart

Still, I carry an ounce of hope
I refuse to let go

But time keeps moving forward
I keep losing hold of
Every single thing that I love
Maybe I should let go
Baby I just don't know
Hmm I need some help from above
Time keeps moving forward
I keep losing hold of
Every single thing that I love
Maybe I should give up
Wish I could go back to the start start start start
Wish I could go back to the start start start start
Wish I could go back to the start start start start
Babe, you know I'm falling apart
