Verse 1

Summer day 7 years old and I took a ride on my bicycle

I can still feel my face against the wind

A backpack full of my favorite toys

Singing songs just to make some noise

Is a good way for a day to begin

I remember when life was simple way back then

Now I'm trying to see through those eyes again, through those eyes

Chorus

If I could turn back time I'd go to 1989

Where every day was full of chasin’ dreams

Yeah I may be grown up but maybe I should try

Livin’ like it’s 1989

Verse 2

 Deep inside this Texas heart there’s an innocence underneath the scars

Waiting to be called outside to play

Wanna feel like a wide eyed kid, wanna put it all back into perspective

God You're great just because You're great

It is so uncomplicated with You here,

with You here

You make the person that I once was reappear, You reverse the years

Chorus

There are different ways to transition to bridge, this is one way:

Bridge

I'm sorry that I made it something complicated

 I am ready now it’s not too late

Everyday I'm learning it's all about returning

 I'm living my life with child-like faith

I'm sorry that I made it something complicated

 I am ready now it’s not too late

Everyday I'm learning it's all about returning

 I'm living my life like I could

Turn back time and go to 1989

Where every day was full of chasin’ dreams

Yeah I may be grown up but maybe I should try

( ) or ( )

Livin’ like it’s 1989

I’m livin’ like it’s 1989*
