I remember we used to be kids, The miles we ran and the things we did
The places we looked, the places we hid, I remember when we used to be kids
I remember running against the wind, The grass on my feet, the sun on my skin
Taking every punch right on the chin, Just waiting for real life to begin
Every leaf was a four leaf clover, the sun went down, but the day wasn't over
A life without trouble, weekends that never end, I remember when we used to be friends
Somewhere along the way, we lost it, We were trying to grow up but we did the opposite
Sliding down the same slope as all the others, I remember we used to be brothers
Now you're afraid you won't make it one day, Without altering your mind in some way
Well, life's a mountain so lets race to the top, Oh I remember when we couldn't be stopped
No better time than now, look back and you'll see how
to live life so free, being who you've always wanted to be
I see now that I'm still a kid, no mattter what I said or what I did
Same hopes and dreams i had all along, i'm gonna act on them, what could go wrong?
