Sit down with an old friend
Like time had never stopped
From the cradle to the coffin
We drink until we drop
Yeah, we grew up on the same street
Small town under the hill, yeah
where dreams get lost and buried down
Deep inside the saw mill, yeah
All day, all night
Keep pressing rewind
All day, all night
I remember
All day, all night
Keep pressing rewind
All day, all night
I remember
We were young, we were wild
We were halfway free
We were kids on the run
On a dead-end street
But looking back in my rear-view mirror
You know the view used to be much clearer
But we'll laugh and we'll cry
'Til there's no more tears
Yeah, tonight can we just hold on
To those eighteen years?
Eighteen years, yeah
Some ran down the highway
To chase away their ghosts
'Some are frozen in the same place
This town inside their bones
Remember throwin' Tv's
Off the overpass onto the tracks, yeah
But the trains roll on through the small towns
And never look back, yeah
All day, all night
Keep pressing rewind
All day, all night
I remember
All day, all night
Keep pressing rewind
All day, tell me:
Do you remember?
We were young, we were wild
We were halfway free
We were kids on the run
On a dead-end street
But looking back in my rear-view mirror
You know the view used to be much clearer
But we'll laugh and we'll cry
'Til there's no more tears
Yeah, tonight can we just hold on
To those eighteen years?
Eighteen years, yeah
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
(Those eighteen years)
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Eighteen years
Eighteen years, yeah
We were young, we were wild
We were halfway free
We were kids on the run
On a dead-end street
We were building a bridge
Out of broken dreams
We were crashing like cars
When we were eighteen
We were young, we were wild
We were halfway free
We were kids on the run
On a dead-end street
But looking back in my rear-view mirror
You know the view used to be much clearer
But we'll laugh and we'll cry
'Til there's no more tears
Yeah, tonight can we just hold on
To those eighteen years?
Eighteen years, yeah
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Oh, yeah, those eighteen years
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Oh, those Eighteen years
