[Verse 1]
Once upon a time, it was paradise
Once upon a time, I was paralyzed
Think I'm gonna miss these harbor lights
But it's time to let it go
Once upon a time, it was made for us
Woke up one day, it had turned to dust
Baby, we were found, but now we're lost
So it's time to let it go

[Pre-Chorus]
I want my house in the hills
Don't want the whiskey and pills
I don't give up easily
But I don't think I'm down

[Chorus]
Won't you slide away?
Back to the ocean, I'll go back to the city lights
Won't you slide away?
Back to the ocean, gotta let you slide away

[Verse 2]
Once upon a time, it was paradise
Once upon a time, I was paralyzed
Think I'm gonna miss these harbor lights
But it's time to let it go
[Pre-Chorus]
Move on, we're not seventeen
I'm not who I used to be
You say that everything changed
You're right, we're grown now

[Chorus]
So won't you slide away?
Back to the ocean, I'll go back to the city lights
Mm, won't you slide away?
Back to the ocean, gotta let you slide away
So won't you slide away?
Back to the ocean, I'll go back to the city lights
So won't you slide away?
Back to the ocean, gotta let you slide away

[Outro]
Move on, we're not seventeen
I'm not who I used to be
You say that everything changed
You're right, we're grown now
