Lyrics of
18 Years

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
But dreams get lost and buried down deep inside the soil there, 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
Looking back in my rearview mirror
You know the view used to be much clearer
But we laugh and we cry til there’s no more tears
Yeah tonight can we just hold on to those 18 years?
18 years

Some ran down the highway
To chase away their ghosts
Some are frozen in the same place
This town inside their bones
Remember throwing TV’s off the overpass on to the tracks, yeah
But 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
Looking back in my rearview mirror
You know the view used to be much clearer
But we laugh and we cry til there’s no more tears
Yeah tonight can we just hold on to those 18 years?
18 years

Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
To those 18 years
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
18 years
18 years, yeah eh eh

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 and we were 18

We were young, we were wild
We were halfway free
We were kids on the run on a dead-end street
Looking back in my rearview mirror
You know the view used to be much clearer
But we laugh and we cry til there’s no more tears
Yeah tonight can we just hold on to those 18 years?

Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Oh yeah, to those 18 years
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Can we just hold on?
Oh, to those 18 years
