18 Years
A song by Daughtry.
Sat down with an old friend
Like time had never stopped
From the cradle to the coffin
We’d drink until we drop
Yeah we grew up on the same street, small town under the hill, yeah
Where dreams get lost and buried down deep inside the saw mill, yeah
And all day, all night, keep pressing rewind
All day, all night, I remember
All day, all night, keep pressing rewind
All day, all night, I remember
We were young
We were wild
We were half-way free
We were kids on the run on a dead-end street
Looking back in the rear-view mirror
You know the view used to be much clearer
But we’ll laugh and we’ll cry till there’s no more tears
Yeah tonight can we just hold on to those 18 years?
18 years, yeah.
Some ran down the highway
To chase away their ghosts
Some frozen in the same place
This town inside their bones
Remember throwing TVs off the overpass onto the tracks, yeah
But the trains roll on through the small town and never look back, yeah
And all day, all night, keep pressing rewind
All day, all night, I remember
All day, all night, keep pressing rewind
All day, tell me do you remember?
We were young
We were wild
We were half-way free
We were kids on the run on a dead-end street
Looking back in the rear-view mirror
You know the view used to be much clearer
But we’ll laugh and we’ll cry till there’s no more tears
Yeah tonight can we just hold on to those 18 years?
18 years, yeah.
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Oh, to those 18 years
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Oh, 18 years
