lyrics

We live each day from dream to dream,
Just keep swimming back upstream,
Near twenty years to find yourself,
It might be hard to find true wealth,
I'd never thought of what we can find,
When back together side by side.

Months and months go day by day,
People pass without words to say,
Catching a chill as the sun sets down,
Just set your feet on solid ground, I swear,
Complacency has its time and place,
For tying up simple things like a shoe lace.

It's been too long since I saw your smile,
Sometimes things change once in a while,
Not losing faith in summer nights,
Stupid classes or messy fights,
It's made me who I'm meant to be,
I'll soon be back to snow and friends, you'll see.
