| I remember this boy in my head
|
| Making forts in the sheets of his bed
|
| Turning all of the blankets and pillows
|
| Into planets and spaceships
|
| I imagine the smile on his face
|
| As he floated away into space
|
| And I think about how I’ve been living
|
| Missing all of those feelings
|
| So what if I, what if I still long
|
| For a time, for a time long gone
|
| Back when I, back when I still thought I could fly?
|
| They say dreams can die and life is war but we got love
|
| Keep the past alive; |
| it’s in our souls, it’s in our blood
|
| And it’s worth the pain not to hide away every memory one by one
|
| They say dreams can die but we can’t hide, no, we can’t hide
|
| The heart of the young
|
| I remember the air was so thin
|
| Only way left to breathe was to give in
|
| I was drowning inside
|
| And the water never really receded
|
| So what if I, what if I still long
|
| For a time, for a time long gone
|
| Back when I, back when I still thought I could fly?
|
| They say dreams can die and life is war but we got love
|
| Keep the past alive; |
| it’s in our souls, it’s in our blood
|
| And it’s worth the pain not to hide away every memory one by one
|
| They say dreams can die but we can’t hide, no, we can’t hide
|
| The heart of the young
|
| Take me, take me back in time
|
| I need to learn to fly
|
| Take me, take me back in time
|
| I need the strength to fight
|
| They say dreams can die and life is war but we got love
|
| Keep the past alive; |
| it’s in our souls, it’s in our blood
|
| And it’s worth the pain not to hide away every memory one by one
|
| They say dreams can die but we can’t hide, no, we can’t hide
|
| The heart of the young |
