We were younger when we Thought that we Could dig a hole deep underneath The city streets So we drew our escape route To your backdoor from our grade school underground Underground And I'm convinced to this that That we should have gotten away And I I just wanna see The world The way it used to be And on your back beside me In the grass and hawking hills Beneath the trees You say to me Look up at the night sky It's nothing but a million lights And mine have died Before our time And look on down the hillside 'Cause everything you want and need is still Alive Alive And I I just wanna see The world The way it used to be And I I just wanna see The world The way it used to be The way it used to be The way it used to be The way it used to be The way it used to be
