Things that we've thrown away
We want right back
But nothing is here to stay
It's just like that
Feeling a certain way
You can't fight that
Knowing there's always change
And the truth is
All my friends
All my friends are getting older
And our youth is
Lost in time
One fast blink and then it's over
And it's useless
Wasting nights
Looking back over your shoulder
Cause the truth is
You'll lose it
Before you know you've got to
Hold on
Some close to you will fade
Some come right back
You cherish the ones that stay
And keep contact
You trust that you're on your way
You're on the right track
You learn to embrace the change
And the truth is
All my friends
All my friends are getting older
And our youth is
Lost in time
One fast blink and then it's over
And it's useless
Wasting nights
Looking back over your shoulder
Cause the truth is
You'll lose it
Before you know you've got to
Hold on
Some things I know
Never heal in time
They bring us back to
Making a choice
To let go of pride
And keep on moving
And I could lose
Everything I've got
In just one second
But what stays true
Time is borrowed
Never guaranteed tomorrow
And the truth is
All my friends
All my friends are getting older
And our youth is
Lost in time
One fast blink and then it's over
And it's useless
Wasting nights
Looking back over your shoulder
Cause the truth is
You'll lose it
Before you know you've got to
Hold on
