I wish that we had met
Before my feet sank into cement
Back when I was free
I used to be
Someone in whom you might believe

At night we used to trip
When the world was just
A coin for me to flip
When you're young you never rest
Climb on the bus
If it's heads we wander north...
Get tails we travel west!

So much for those days of bliss
Between every breath a goodbye kiss
We took our chances
God, how I miss
That fire burning in my chest

I wish that you could see
The way it was
Back when I was still me
We'd climb the tallest thing in sight
Just to feel the rush
Of wind beneath our feet

So much for those days of bliss
Between every breath a goodbye kiss
We took our chances
Lord, how I miss that fire burning in my chest

So much for those dreams of mine
What I once had disappeared with time
So take your chances, just live your life
What God divides, men cannot bind

I wish that you were there
To catch the light
The colors in the sky
To beckon the sunrise
Along with us
Dream chasers never sleep
But doubters never rise
