[Verse 1]
I'm back, back in town
And everything has changed
I feel, feel let down
The faces stay the same
I see, see shadows
Of who we used to be
When I drive, drive so slow
Through this memory
[Chorus]
When we were only kids
And we were best of friends
And we hoped for the best
And let go of the rest
[Verse 2]
I heard, heard myself
Say things I'd take back
If I could, could retell
And make these stories last
I see, see shadows
Of who you'll always be
When I drive, drive these roads
That made our memories
[Chorus]
When we were only kids
And we were best of friends
And we hoped for the best
And let go of the rest
Shadows and regrets
We let go of the rest
[Bridge]
Everything has changed
Faces stay the same [x2]
[Outro]
And we were only kids
And our time couldn't end
And how tall did we stand
With the world in my hands
And we were only kids
And we were best of friends
And we hoped for the best
And let go of the rest
And shadows and regrets
We let go of the rest
Shadows and regrets
We let go of the rest
