[Verse 1] Way back when the world was small We'd run through fields No care at all Shoes untied Hearts open wide Every hill felt like a mountain tall [Chorus] Way back when Way back then We were kings We were queens of pretend No clocks No plans Just the wind My friend Oh Take me back to way back when [Verse 2] The sun was gold The nights were free We built our castles out of fallen trees Secrets whispered to the quiet stream Life was just a dream inside a dream [Prechorus] No maps No signs Just stars and time [Chorus] Way back when Way back then We were kings We were queens of pretend No clocks No plans Just the wind My friend Oh Take me back to way back when [Bridge] The gravel roads The paper planes The summers that would never end We didn’t know what we didn’t know And I’d trade it all to feel that again
