lyrics

You said remember how we used to drive so fast?
Rolling the windows down like it'd make the summer last

If I could find a way
To that beach where we fell asleep
I would be OK
Buried a letter, a lost treasure
For a future me, when I was young and carefree

I guess we're not the same now, it's for the better
We watch the seasons pass, sunburned skin weathered

If I could find a way
To that beach where we fell asleep
I would be OK
Buried a letter, a lost treasure
For a future me, when I was young and carefree

And as we sleep the sand erodes
Out to sea, I lost something. Where'd it go?

If I could find a way
If I could find a way
If I could find a way back I'd be OK.

You said remember how we used to drive so fast?

Found this album at a time I was in the habit of having a bad dream about you and me. It's great, the song's great, the band's great, corn dogs are probably mid at best. vincentavatar
