we drink until we drop

yea , we grew up on the same street , small town under the hill
yea
but dreams get lost and buried down deep inside the sun yea
yea

( pre – chorus x2 )
all day , all night
keep pressing rewind
all day , all night
i remember

( chorus )
we were young , we were wild
we were halfway free
we were kids on the run on a dead – end street
but looking back in my rearview mirror
you know the view used to be much clearer
but we laugh and we cry til theres no more tears
yea tonight can we just hold on to those 18 years?
18 years

( verse )
somewhere down the highway
chase away the ghosts
cause now were frozen in the same place
its time inside their bones

( verse )
remember before were tvs i be over fast on to the tracks
yea
but trains roll on through the small towns and never look back
yea

( pre – chorus x2 )
all day , all night
keep pressing rewind
all day , all night
i remember
all day , all night
keep pressing rewind
all day , tell me do you remember?

( bridge )
can we just hold on?
can we just hold on?
can we just hold on? ( to those 18 years )
can we just hold on?
can we just hold on?
can we just hold on?
18 years
18 years yea eh eh

( verse )
we were young , we were wild
we were halfway free
we were kids on the run on a dead – end street
we were building a bridge out of broken dreams
we were crashing like cars and we were 18

( bridge )
can we just hold on?
can we just hold on?
can we just hold on?
can we just hold on?
can we just hold on?
can we just hold on?
