Summer day 7 years old and I took a ride on my bicycle
I can still feel my face against the wind
A backpack full of my favorite toys
Singing songs just to make some noise
Is a good way for a day to begin
I remember when life was simple way back then
Now I'm trying to see through those eyes again, through those eyes
If I could turn back time I'd go to 1989
Where every day was full of chasin' dreams
Yeah I may be grown up but maybe I should try
Livin' like it's 1989
Deep inside this Texas heart there's an innocence underneath the scars
Waiting to be called outside to play
Wanna feel like a wide eyed kid, wanna put it all back into perspective
God you're great just because you're great
It is so uncomplicated with you here, with you here
You make the person that I once was reappear, you reverse the years
I'm sorry that I made it something complicated
I am ready now it's not too late
Everyday I'm learning it's all about returning
I'm living my life with child-like faith
I'm sorry that I made it something complicated
I am ready now it's not too late
Everyday I'm learning it's all about returning
I'm living my life like I could
Turn back time and go to 1989
Where every day was full of chasin' dreams
Yeah I may be grown up but maybe I should try
Livin' like it's 1989
I'm livin' like it's 1989
