Lyrics

Teenage Dreams

Calm down now

Gotta trust the mind

Take its common sense

Give it blood and time

Can't talk much just a little bit

The truth is a tree if you start shaking it

Sometimes I ask the wrong questions

But I get the right answers

Moved to a tear by

The subway breakdancer

It's never too late for teenage dreams

It's never too late

It's never too late for teenage dreams

Teenage dreams

Wind is blowing

Did you mark that speed

In between the days

When the tremor seats

And the overstock of these easy times

Has the warnings of birds in coal mines

Sometimes I ask the wrong questions

But I get the right answers

Moved to a tear by

The subway breakdancer

It's never too late for teenage dreams

You'll get through the days when you're way too late

And the clouds lift the top off of the empire state

Even those days

You have the feeling

Someone's listening

Through everyone's overtalking

We sit we wait and we empty our plates

Let's prove that this year something's coming

Sometimes I ask the wrong questions

But I get the right answers

Moved to a tear by

The subway breakdancer

It's never too late for teenage dreams

It's never too late

It's never too late for teenage dreams

Teenage dreams

Sometimes I ask the wrong questions

But I get the right answers

Moved to a tear by

The subway breakdancer

The subway breakdancer

(teenage dreams)

The subway breakdancer

(teenage dreams)

The subway breakdancer
