A Way Back To Then
Dancing in the backyard
Kool-aid mustache and butterfly wings
Hearing andrea mccartle sing from the high-fi in the den
Ive been waiting my whole life
To find a way back to then
I aimed for the sky
A nine year old can see so far
Ill conquer the world and be a star
Ill do it all by the time im ten
I would know that confidence
If i knew a way back to then
So i bailed on my hometown
And became a college theater dork
I was east bound and down moving to new york
So i crammed my life in a UHaul
To find my part of it all
But the mundain sets in
We play by the rules and
Plow through the days the years take us
miles away from the time we wondered when
We find a way back to then
And when you least expect
Opportunity walks through the door
You suddenly connect with a thing that
you forgot that youve been looking for
And there you are
Right in the middle of what you love with the craziest of company
you're having a kickass time and
being who you wanted to be in this world
You're that little girl with her wings unfurled
Flying again
Back in the backyard dancing
I found a way back to then
Kool-aid mustache and butterfly wings
Hearing andrea mccartle sing from the high-fi in the den
Ive been waiting my whole life
To find a way back to then
I aimed for the sky
A nine year old can see so far
Ill conquer the world and be a star
Ill do it all by the time im ten
I would know that confidence
If i knew a way back to then
So i bailed on my hometown
And became a college theater dork
I was east bound and down moving to new york
So i crammed my life in a UHaul
To find my part of it all
But the mundain sets in
We play by the rules and
Plow through the days the years take us
miles away from the time we wondered when
We find a way back to then
And when you least expect
Opportunity walks through the door
You suddenly connect with a thing that
you forgot that youve been looking for
And there you are
Right in the middle of what you love with the craziest of company
you're having a kickass time and
being who you wanted to be in this world
You're that little girl with her wings unfurled
Flying again
Back in the backyard dancing
I found a way back to then
