When I was young, I had a dream That time was shifting speed, oh Then we grew old, grew a beard Settled down and lost touch And no one there, one of us Would cut ties and then drift off Our younger years fade away And we're forced to move on But we've learned how to fake it And we've learned to be broke And we've dodged all the bitterness That grew in our homes And you've proved me desperate 'Cause I'm still holding on And you've learned I won't admit it How hard it is to just let go (How hard it is to just let go How hard it is to just let go) And now I dream life is a path Full of vines to walk through And maybe in a couple years I'll tell you if this song truth 'Cause we're never lost with sattelites Take a walk for five long days And it'll glow forevermore But my strength will soon fade But we've learned how to fake it And we've learned to be broke And we've dodged all the bitterness That grew in our homes And you've proved me desperate 'Cause I'm still holding on And you've learned I won't admit it How hard it is to just let go (How hard it is to just let go How hard it is to just let go) When I was young I had a wish That I would take my bones away Travel far, feel alive See the sun from a new place And I would lie into the lights Of galaxies from far away And they'll glow forever more But my strength will soon fade
