When we were kids,
We'd never look down
We'd run off the edge, we'd never do it now
And do you remember...
Hey!
Broken sleep
Like that will make it better
Pull me deep
And do you remember
Make that leap
Or maybe make it never
But i think i might make it soon
And maybe i was just too impatient
When i think about leaving school
When we were kids
We'd never look down
We'd run off the edge, we'd never do it now
When we were kids
We'd never look down
We'd run off the edge, we'd never do it now
Do you remember...
Breaking up
Like that will make it better
Fill my cup
And do you remember
Walk the streets
And try to stay together
Is really feeling like something good
And maybe i was just too impatient
When i think about leaving you
When we were kids
We'd never look down
We'd run off the edge, we'd never do it now
When we were kids
We'd never look down
We'd run off the edge, we'd never do it now
Do you remember...
Hey!
Do you remember...
We'd run away way way
To the river
But the river ran to the sea
We'd run away way way
To the river but the river ran
The river ran to the sea
When we were kids
We'd never look down
We'd run off the edge, we'd never do it now
When we were kids
We'd never look down
We'd run off the edge
We'd run away way way
To the river
But the river ran to the sea
We'd run away way way
To the river but the river ran
The river ran to the sea
When we were kids
And do you remember
