Now that we’ve grown older
We want another chance
Take us on a journey
Let’s go back
The California tide kept coming
All along the shore we were running
There’s a song in your head you kept humming
Standing at the edge of the world, we said nothing
Dancing all night
Underneath the starlight
When you kissed me in the blue moonlight
I lost track of time
Never thought that I would be
Re-tracing my footprints hopelessly
You were washed into the sea
The song running through my mind got me losing reality
Now or never if I’m gonna go
The June breeze lost its fresh green glow
Neither you or I could have known…
Oh, when we grew older
We would ever hunger
For another chance
But will we, but will we, but will we ever not look back?
Oh, the coastline’s calling
Back in time we’re falling
At the water’s edge, we’ll find another chance
But will we, but will we, but will we ever not miss that?
The waves enfold our feet
Let’s take another step
The siren sings her song
But we’re not turning back
We swam with all our might
To find where sea meets sky
Explore the sands of time
But let the river guide you home
Oh, when we grew older
We would ever hunger
For another chance
Will we ever not look back?
Back in time we’re falling
Oh, when we grew older
We hear the coastline calling at the water’s edge
But will we
Ever not look back?
The siren sings her song
We swam with all our might
Will we ever not miss that?
Oh, the coastline’s calling
To find where sea meets sky
Explore the sands of time
But let the river guide you home

Take my hand for a moment
Lose yourself tonight
There’s no one in the world but you and I
I don’t wanna end up alone
I'm not gonna go on my own
Come with me and maybe we can be
Something other than ordinary
Pirouette to catch your eye
Try to hide my best smile; you’re reading all my signs
I don’t wanna slow it down
Take my hand for a moment
Lose yourself tonight
There’s no one in the world but you and I
I can hear the nightlife calling
Dance with me, we’re on repeat
Beat for beat, routine, we’re synchronized
I can hear the nightlife calling
Stuttered rhythm, fracture space and time
The stars align, cast fears aside
Our universes collide
You look immaculate
My god, I think you’re perfect
I look so desperate
How are you convinced I’m worth it?
Let me try, oh, let me try
To be a little more than all these other guys
When you take my hand
I’ll let you spin me around
Take my hand for a moment
Lose yourself tonight
There’s no one in the world but you and I
In the blink of an eye
You were gone
An apparition disappeared
Into the cosmic fog
I’m an astronaut
Searching for my dancer in the stars
I’d cross the constellations
Break the fourth dimension
If I could hold you one more time
One night, or the rest of our lives?
Did it ever occur to you?
Was it just a game when you were walking back down Main?
Did it ever occur to you?

Take me back
Take my hand
Hold me back
Hold me down
Sleepless nights spent searching for you
Is it real? Do you feel what I feel?
Let’s be still
Before we head our separate ways
Stay
(I’ll travel with you now)
Stay
(I won’t let go of you)
Stay
(For the rest of our lives, baby, I’ll)
Stay
(And we can fall in love
I’ll always hold you close, oh
For the rest of our lives, baby)
Don’t move too fast
Breathe in and take a chance
Coming to a close like a paragraph
Countless moments coalesce at last

Back When (Reimagined)

These places we have come to know
(Leave it all behind)
Morphing space and time as we go
(Can’t stay any longer)
We’re watching it with old eyes
(I’ve gotta let you go)
We are spinning out of control
Memories don’t fade
(Leave it all behind)
Can't stay any longer
Memories don’t fade
(I've gotta let you go)
Can’t stay any longer
From the blinding light we see our path.
Dust falling, rocks shifted from our uphill climb to the greener side.
Lightstorm eyes glisten new with tears of joy,
Because we lived it. We lived:
To wash ourselves, cleansed, not caught.
We take our first step into our corporeal dream.

The shades are open
As we wait for morning
A standing invitation
To see a Technicolor dream
Those days behind us
Always will remind us
We’re never moving forward
If we continue to rewind
In stride with the sun on its rise
We’re watching it with old eyes
Memories don’t fade away
They glow, glow
Bittersweet reverie
Memories don’t fade away
Waist deep, the river
Pushes us, but we fight upstream
Let’s reach out, rediscover the source
Back where we could let our smiles soar
Neck deep, the current
Caught in the ebb and flow of the notion
That the sun burned brighter back when we were younger
(We gotta find a silver lining)
Memories don’t fade away
They glow, glow
Bittersweet reverie
Memories don’t fade away
In stride with the sun on its rise
We’re watching it with old eyes
