We were young

No one could figure out

Things we said

There was so much to laugh about

Now at the end of the day

Wish I could hear you say

We're at the starting gate

And the race is on again

Just last night

I couldn't sleep at all

Lost my mind

Lost my footing scaling the wall

Now at the break of day

Wish I could hear you say

We're at the starting gate

And the race is on again

(Instrumental Break)

Now at the end of the day

Wish I could hear you say

We're at the starting gate

And the race is on again

Now at the end of the day

Wish you would say

And the race is on again

What am I doing now

What am I doing now

What am I doing wrong

Will you wait for me

Or will you run away

I swear that I knew yesterday

Yesterday

What am I doing now

What am I doing wrong

Will you wait for me

Or will you run away

I swear that I knew yesterday

Yesterday
