Verse

When we were younger we had nothing to do

so we'd close our eyes and spin around in circles

min

happy to hit the ground

 or happy to just fall down

When we were younger we'd go down to the park

we'd catch all the fireflies we'd put 'em in jars

we never knew that they'd die we never really thought that far

Chorus x1

I'm not the kid you knew

im not the kid you remember

When we were younger we were scared of the dark

so we closed our eyes we pulled the sheets over our heads

we didn't want to see what's there

like the shadows under the bed

And now that I'm older I look back on those days

I wish I had them back cuz the shadows are gone

or at least they're not that strong

as the shadows in my head

Chorus x2

Bridge

min

In 1985 there was a picture taken with my name on it

min

climbin' an apple tree with blue shoes

You'd think it was me I could swear it was you

Chorus x4
