Somewhere hidden in the shadows
Of a place I used to know
There's a world that's slowly fadin' from my mind
And sometimes it sneaks right back to me
When I'm driftin' off to sleep
And I get a glance at the life I've left behind
In between the rush of daylight
And the dizzy of the night
I get carried away and I walk down memory lane
And I'm feastin' on the rollercoaster
Ride into my past
With a cigarette and a fair share of caffeine
There's a box full of memories
Hidden in my mind
That I will hold tight till the day I die
But there's no goin' back
No there's no goin' back
I made my peace with all my yesterdays
With the good ones and the bad
And I'm holdin' out for what tomorrow brings
But sometimes it sneaks right back to me
When I'm fallin' out of sleep
And I think about the things that could have been
There's a box full of memories
Hidden in my mind
That I will hold tight till the day I die
When I open up the box there's a world creepin' out
That reminds me of what it was all about
When I used to be young
When I used to be young
And I go back in time and I stumble and fall
And I can't help feelin' like I had it all
When I used to be young
When I used to be young
But there's no goin' back
No there's no goin' back
But there's no goin' back
No there's no goin' back
