Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Feels like yesterday
I was living at my parents' house
I blinked and things changed
Fast forward and I was moving out
[Verse 2]
I can only exist in three dimensions at a time
Who am I to resist a river flowing left to right?
It's like we've been dancing in the dark
A great big expansion from a spark
[Verse 3]
Over in a moment
Finished in a flash
Slipping through my fingers
Life's an hourglass
Shattered on the floor, oh
[Verse 4]
It'll never be the way it was before
No
[Verse 5]
Feels like yesterday
I was falling in love
Then came the heartbreak
Like it always does
[Verse 6]
Nobody escapes it
Time's a losing game
Might as well embrace it
'Till it flies away
[Verse 7]
Know that nobody can stay forever young
I wish I could just take a break from growing up
It's like we've been dancing in the dark
A great big expansion from a spark
[Verse 8]
Over in a moment
Finished in a flash
Slipping through my fingers
Life's an hourglass
Shattered on the floor, oh
[Verse 9]
It'll never be the way it was before
The way it was before
[Verse 10]
Over in a moment
Finished in a flash
Slipping through my fingers
Moving way too fast
[Verse 11]
Wish I had just a little more, oh
It'll never be the way it was before
