lyrics

We used to go outside and play
Jumping off our bridge into the lake
We used to go out after dark
Hiding in the bushes from the adults that were passing by
Climbing on the rooftop of a printshop
Running through the neighbor's yard and knocking on the back window

Maybe, maybe we can just pretend
That we're twelve years old again
Maybe, maybe we can just forget
That we're never going back

We used to ride our bikes in town
In the middle of the road with the cars passing by on either side
We used to think that we were kings
Rulers of the streets and the backwood trails
We used to believe that nothing bad could ever happen to us
Thinking 'bout growing up, but never about growing old

Maybe, maybe we can just pretend
That we're twelve years old again
Maybe, maybe we can just forget
That we're never going back

We used to dance to our favorite song
Singing along, but we couldn't understand

Maybe, maybe we can just pretend
That we're twelve years old again
Maybe, maybe we can just forget
That we're never going back
