What ever happened to the first summer we ran away
Hearing our hearts pound on 95 Southbound
We never saw a snow angel's half chance in hell we'd be betrayed by the sound
It's taken so long for me to come back around
What ever happened to the first summer we ran away
There wasn't anyone who cared still we took up the chase
You couldn't slip a hair between us and the world that we held in our gaze
It's so hard not to compare once you notice there's nothing there
You've got to wonder what keeps us here Is it devotion or fear
It's still so easy to hear
We forced ourselves to ignore this year the ever audible siren song of the Econoline's gears
What ever happened to the last time you thought it was safe
to lower your guard down once you heard the guitar sound
There was no heaven like no sign of a stage between the mic and the crowd
It's taken so long for me to come back around
but I'm starting to realize now where I was missing out
I'm always missing out
We can't fight and we can't win, but we're the boys and we won't give in
