[Verse 1]
Here I go again
Another leap of faith
I close my eyes and wait to fall
I see a future in which I will soon become
The only truth you know at all
You wanna know what I'm thinking?
I think about back then

[Chorus]
Back when we built something new
The world was ours to conquer
And we were not afraid to lose ourselves
Somewhere inside this, you changed
And I could never follow you that way

[Verse 2]
I miss you madly and it's raining on the coast
I'm supposed to say "this was your loss", and "I'm fine"
I stare for hours at these numbers in my hand
But ringing you would mend your heart, and break mine
You wanna know what I'm thinking?
I think about back then

[Chorus]
Back when we built something new
The world was ours to conquer
And we were not afraid to lose ourselves
Somewhere inside this, you changed
And I could never follow you that way
[Bridge]
(Sometimes I dream)
We laugh 'til we cry
(With smoke in our eyes)
Just like old times
Never again
That was back then

[Chorus]
Back when we built something new
The world was ours to conquer
And we were not afraid to lose ourselves
Somewhere inside this, you changed
And I could never follow you that way

[Outro]
Somewhere inside this, you changed
And I could never follow you that way
