How long's it been since I was young?
Fifteen years since wooden guns.
Six years since playing board games was anywhere near fun.
And It'd be over-dramatic to say the world forgot about me on its way,
But that's not always enough to keep cursing the whole of the Earth at bay.
No one knows me like John Hughes did
I think we all relate to that
Because we've all felt unsung from every mouth and every lung
We've all felt that life was easier when we were young
How long's it been since overwhelmed' was still a word I couldn't spell
Let alone the most obvious choice for a word to define myself?
I never thought I'd be this young a man to be doubting the cards in these hands.
That jitter and shake half the time from the coffee I drink and rely on to stand
No one knows me like John Hughes did
I think we all relate to that
Because we've all felt unsung from every mouth and every lung
We've all felt that life was easier when we were young
There'll be days when we lose our way like a feather
But we all live and we die in this cold, cold world together
(What are we destined for?)
No one knows me like John Hughes did
Because we've all felt unsung from every mouth and every lung
We've all felt that life was easier when we were young
