Take Me Back
Just yesterday we were flying through the stars
Took a cardboard rocket launching from your backyard
Sunny summer afternoons when all we had to do
Was be back on earth for dinner, then back to the moon
Now I'm looking at a photo from your wedding last spring
Scroll down and see a spaceship made of boxes tied with string
But this one's driven by your son and his friend
Ten thousand blocks from where I'm living
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
As I daydream I can hear them counting to ten
My parents pretending they didn't know where I hid
Endless August nights they'd play like they were kids again
I thought the march of time could never catch them
And then I see their message on my phone
They're counting the days till I'll be back home
But the older I get, the higher we have to count
As their fountain of youth continues running out
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
The clock keeps ticking as I keep wishing I could go back in time
I never realized how precious every second was that passed me by
And I can't stop thinking about the irony that we can never see
How much a moment means till we blink and it's already a memory
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
Took a cardboard rocket launching from your backyard
Sunny summer afternoons when all we had to do
Was be back on earth for dinner, then back to the moon
Now I'm looking at a photo from your wedding last spring
Scroll down and see a spaceship made of boxes tied with string
But this one's driven by your son and his friend
Ten thousand blocks from where I'm living
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
As I daydream I can hear them counting to ten
My parents pretending they didn't know where I hid
Endless August nights they'd play like they were kids again
I thought the march of time could never catch them
And then I see their message on my phone
They're counting the days till I'll be back home
But the older I get, the higher we have to count
As their fountain of youth continues running out
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
The clock keeps ticking as I keep wishing I could go back in time
I never realized how precious every second was that passed me by
And I can't stop thinking about the irony that we can never see
How much a moment means till we blink and it's already a memory
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
Ooh, take me back and freeze those moments
When you and I had a world of time but didn't know it
