lyrics

All the young kids in the run around years,
caught up in the action, anything can happen

Gabriel gave the gift of knowledge to the babes before they were born
Bestowed upon them the secrets of the great primordial storm
We were thrown together as lines were drawn for a seventeen year long run
Passing time in unconscious halls, throwing stones, manufacturing fun
We were oh so young

Hours down in our treehouse days playing aviator cards on the floor
Sneaking out summer flashlit nights “gonna stay here forever” we swore
Now I’m watching and wondering how you got lost in the beautiful crowd
A nod in the distance across the hall I’ll wait till you come around
And we’re back on common ground

All the young kids in the run around years,
caught up in the action, anything can happen

We’re streaming out into the parking lot under glowing lights gone wild
Impulses rushing as muscles move in bi-directional teenage style
Now we’re together, bumping shoulders again, recalling all the days that we spent
That sugar sweet honey standing next to you says she wants to see me again
And, man, it’s like you never left

All the young kids in the run around years,
caught up in the action, anything can happen

Those nights were full of possibility
So wide open for you and me
These days carry far less mystery

All the young kids in the run around years,
caught up in the action, anything can happen
