lyrics

Keep on feeding me line
I’m just getting used
To the concept of time
Give me back a couple years
I wasn’t even done with those yet
And now I’m here

But of course lets not be ridiculous now
They say a grown man doesn’t complain
But god dammit how I’d love to have a drink
Like we used to
When we didn’t have half our brains
god dammit how I’d love to have a drink
Like we used to
When we didn’t have half our brains

I wanna go deep into the pine trees
With a bottle of something fine and my guitar
And I want all my old friends to find me
So we can dance the night away
Under those bright New England stars

Wouldn’t you love to take a plane
Back through memory lane just for a few
If I could run back in time
I’d be an olympic sprinter
Chasing after you

Come on we gotta go back into the woods
Get ourselves up to no damn good
And make a lot of noise
Lets build a fire the size
Of the tallest building in Dubai
Because boys will always be boys

Wouldn’t you love to take a plane
Back through memory lane just for a few
If I could run back in time
I’d be an olympic sprinter
Chasing after you

I’ve been falling farther and farther away
From everything I’ve known and loved
I’ve become the astronaut
That stepped outside for the view
And found myself drifting off

Wouldn’t you love to take a plane
Back through memory lane just for a few
If I could run back in time
I’d be an olympic sprinter
Chasing after you

Keep on feeding me line
I’m just getting used
To the concept of time
Give me back a couple years
I wasn’t even done with those yet
And now I’m here
