Remember when you spoke to me
In a voice so sincere?
You said one day, you'd find a way
To erase every fear
The stupid kids we used to be
Never quite grew up
We're innocent and young at heart
But out of all our luck

You're even further now
But I still count down

It's not like you asked for the world
But I know that you want it
I know that you need it
Well, if you had given me a reason
I'd try to resent it
I'd try not to give in
'Cause I don't want you to go
That way

It seems that every day,
We're walking closer to the end,
Where all the things that we once loved
Will never come again
The hopeful eyes we used to have
Turned cynical in time
Now, every streak of honesty
Is proof we're out of line

But I hope that you know
I'm not letting go

It's not like you asked for the world
But I know that you want it
I know that you need it
Well, if you had given me a reason
I'd try to resent it
I'd try not to give in
'Cause I don't want you to go
That way

Now, as we depart
For the very last time,
Will you still hold on
Or let it pass by?
The time that we spent
And the friendships we made
Together, we'll drift away
