Please, don't tell me anymore
There's a weight in your eyes, and it weighs on my heart
Where have the children gone
We were innocent once... but that was so long ago

Have we lost our way back home
We have made mistakes I know, I know

Don't tell me of better days
There's a memory I have, it could be something I read
Of laughter and cheap guitars
In a house full of friends, it could have been one of ours
We stayed up late and loved the stars
I can't remember the rest, just a few part

Have we lost our way back home
We have made mistakes I know, I know

I think they've lost something that they miss
I want to find that book, dust it off and read it again
There was hope in the end

Have we lost our way back home
We have made mistakes, I know
We were braver still, when we were young
And when we were young we spoke in tongues
