[Verse 1]
You used to talk about freedom like it's paradise
I was too young to understood it, but it sounded nice
You'd say, "Life is to be lived and never suffered, my son"
Like Louis L'Amour, we'll live like bandits on the run
You would talk about freedom like it's paradise
[Chorus]
I wish we had gone to Alaska (Ooh)
And felt the air in our lungs
Time's only precious (Ooh)
'Cause you wake up and it's gone
I wish we had gone to Alaska (Ooh)
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I think about you and my heart grows sad
(And my heart grows sad)
I get to thinkin' 'bout the memories we might've had
(Might've had)
And I likе to think I'll carry on our better days
Patiencе is a virtue, but some things just can't wait
[Chorus]
Wish we had gone to Alaska (Ooh)
And felt the air in our lungs (Ooh)
Time's only precious (Ooh)
'Cause you wake up and it's gone
We'd have made memories, sweet like wine, drunk on life
You and I (Ooh)
I wish we had gone to Alaska (Ooh)
[Bridge]
You'd say, "Life is to be lived and never suffered, my son"
Like Louis L'Amour, we'll live like bandits on the run
[Chorus]
Wish we had gone to Alaska (Ooh)
And felt the air in our lungs (Ooh)
Time's only precious (Ooh)
When we wake up and it's gone
We'd have made memories, sweet like wine, drunk on life
You and I (Ooh), yeah
Wish we had gone to Alaska (Ooh)
[Outro]
I wish we had gone to Alaska, yeah
