if I look back at when we were young
don’t recognise almost anyone
those sparkling eyes were destined to dull
we’d talk about the things we’d do
those dreams replaced with something new
we’re birds set free but we never flew
guess something got in the way
seemed to us we had it all
our eyes were wide and our hearts were full
the world was ours, we couldn’t fall
but things got tough,
some moved away
worked nine to five to pay our way
now we live in debts we’ll never pay
guess something got in the way
guess something got in the way
what happened to all those kids
we used to dream so big
guess something got in the way
years flew by and we grew old
our lives once lived now stories told
gone are the dreams we used to hold
so here we are and who are we
the people we said we’d never be
if I could go back i’d tell the younger me
don’t let things get in the way
don’t let things get in the way
what happened to all those kids
we used to dream so big
guess something got in the way
if you could go back
what would you change
if you could go back
what would you change
if you could go back
what would you change
