lyrics

I’m turning eighteen
In my golden dreams
But I know that time was hard for me
I didn’t have the strength back then
To take what I needed and to leave
What I didn’t need

Got stoned in the car
Watched the moon go speeding past
When I woke there was a song in my head
It’s been 15 years
And I’m starting to remember it

This is what you have got
For your time on the earth
This is what you have earned
This is what you have got
For all those hours in the world
You can wear it like a sun around your face

I’m ok I’m not lost
for the moment
One of these days I’m gonna be born again

But it all came up so fast
I looked up and I was tired and I had tried so hard
Have you ever wanted to be loved so bad?
And not by a person who could love you back
And not by a person all
But the world.
