Na na na na na na oh oh . . .

Going through changes from back where I once began um mm

A distant stranger I used to know so long ago um mm

Yea yea yea

Enlighten me 'lighten me up

Make me all over again

Come on a let me in yea

Chorus

It was like a lifetime passed right through my fingers

(through my fingers . . . umm)

So long ago so much that I didn't know

(so much that I didn't know)

Kind of like a light shined down and showed me how

How to move on that was then and this is now

Waking up it seems am I the dreamer or the dream

Is it possible to know tomorrow unfolds too slow yea

Shakin me waking me up clearing my vision again

Seems like I'm born again ohh ooooo

Chorus

It was like a lifetime passed right through my fingers

(through my fingers . . . umm)

So long ago so much that I didn't know

(so much that I didn't know)

Kind of like a light shined down and showed me how

How to move on that was then and this is now

(REPETE O REFRÃO)
