Lyrics
[Verse 1] Every night I dream the same dream Of getting older and older all the time I ask you now, what does this mean? Are all these problems just in my mind? Things are easy when you're a child But now these pressures have dropped on my head The length I've gone are just long miles Would they be shorter if I were dead? [Chorus] Every time I look in my past I always wish I was there I wish my youth would forever last Why are these times so unfair? [Verse 2] Look at my friends and see what they've done Ask myself why they've had to change I liked 'em better when they were young Now all these times are rearranged I look down and stand there and cry Nothing ever will be the same The sun is rising, now I ask why The clouds now fall and here comes the rain [Chorus] Every time I look in my past I always wish I was there I wish my youth would forever last Why are these times so unfair? (Go!) [Instrumental Break] [Verse 1] Every night I dream the same dream Of getting older and older all the time I ask you now, what does this mean? Are all these problems just in my mind? Things are easy when you're a child But now these pressures have dropped on my head The length I've gone are just long miles Would they be shorter if I were dead? [Chorus] Every time I look in my past I always wish I was there I wish my youth would forever last Why are these times so unfair?
