Roll The Stone Back

We were dumb, we were young, we were having fun
We were broke all the time, didn't mean a thing
Playing games, happy days, in the summer sun
Full of joy, full of life, tasting everything
Down the park, making sparks with a pack of ten
Chucking rocks, skimming stones 'til we couldn't see
Kick the can, hide and seek, nothing mattered then
Wasting time 'cos we thought we had eternity

Looking backwards from a foreign place, so many years ago
Well I wish that you could bottle this and take a sip
And feel the way you did when you were young

Now we're older, got the world upon our shoulders
Been through changes, now we understand the big game
Got responsibilities and mouths to feed now
Got no time to mess around and shoot the breeze now
And our choices very slowly lead towards this
Road we're walking 'til it feels you're on a knife edge
Keep your eyes upon the path, ignore frustrations
No room for turning round ignore your reservations

Looking backwards from a foreign place, so many years ago
Well I wish that you could bottle this and take a sip
And feel the way you did when you were young

Got a crush, feel the rush of adrenalin
On my mind, all the time, want to breathe you in
Feel my heart, beating fast, when you touch my skin
Feel your tongue, in my mouth, it's so alien
I can still smell your hair and it takes me there
To a time so sublime with so little care
When the world was so small, you were all I knew
I was sure that this was it and we would stay together

Roll the stone back up the hill and take me back in time
Pause the video and press rewind
To see your face one more time
Looking backwards from this foreign place
So many years ago
Well I wish that you could bottle it and take a sip
And feel the way you did when you were young
And feel the way you did when you were young
And feel the way you did when you were young
