Drinking our coffee, it's a quarter to three
No one in this place, just us and our mistakes
You in the corner, that stupid smile on your face
Tell me is there a way to replace all the dreams
That didn't come true once we were happy

Once we were people who used to dream about the future
Once we were people with stars in our eyes

Do you remember when I was your 'Alice blue gown'
And you were the handsome young prince in his crown?
Now the rain hits the roof and you realize
That even your youth has let you down
Oh don't go cry in your beer 'cause it all ends in tears
Remember when we were happy

Once we were people who used to dream about the future
Yeah, once we were people with stars in our eyes

Once we were people who used to dream about the future
But where did it all go?
Where did it all go?
Where did it all go?

When did we stop taking pictures?
And when did you lose all your fight?
And where did you sign, give up, and resign?
I never gave up on you
No, I never gave up on you
Once we were people who used to dream about the future
Once we were people with stars in our eyes
Once we were people
Once we were people
