I wrote this song when I turned 15
You were the only girl I'd ever seen
I wrote this song, oh I wrote it for you
But then you moved away, and I moved away too, yeah

OOh

Well I dreamed a lot when I was just a kid
I could see though walls, that's just the way that I did
Then I lost my way in the city of lights
Yeah, I got pulled in, oh I gave up a fight
And if I'm older now, well it's all just an act
And after all of these years I wouldn't take a thing back

[Verse]
Cause mystery and wonder
If we only had each other
Mystery and wonder
Is there lightning without thunder?
OOh

Well I wrote this song when I was 17
What makes us write our lives man, you know what I mean
And if I'm older now, it's all just an act
And after all of these years I wouldn't take a thing back

[Verse]

Well I wrote this song when I was 29
It was more than it seemed, it was ahead of its time
But If I'm older now it's all just an act
And after all of these years I wouldn't take a thing back

[Verse] x2
