How long was I sleeping? Did you wake me?
It didn't feel like that long
Nowadays I just sleeping, life is different
Thought I'd never get old
Sometimes I just miss it, being reckless
We were indestructible
Who knew that time, would slip away from us

At twenty-something young we had it all figured out
It's different now, got so much more to think about
Oh why can't it still be the same?
Can't stop this runaway train
The memories are all we have
Framed in our minds like photographs
So, why can't it still feel the same?
Can't stop this runaway runaway train

A world we were on top of, had the promise
That we would reach our dreams
Who knew that in time they'd slip away from us
We were young and brave and free
Young and brave and free

A world we were on top of

At twenty-something young we had it all figured out
It's different now, got so much more to think about
Oh why can't it still be the same?
Can't stop this runaway train
The memories are all we have
Framed in our minds like photographs
So, why can't it still feel the same?
Can't stop this runaway runaway train

How long was I sleeping? Did you wake me?
It didn't feel like that long
Who knew that time, would slip away from us
And our youth got up in smoke

At twenty-something young we had it all figured out
It's different now, got so much more to think about
Oh why can't it still be the same?
Can't stop this runaway train
The memories are all we have
Framed in our minds like photographs
So, why can't it still feel the same?
Can't stop this runaway runaway train
