I can feel the time closing in
I can feel the years crawling through my skin
And if I doubt myself
I can count on the rain
To cover the tears of this aging game
But I can count on you
To play your part
I don`t miss a beat of your animal heart
And when you push from behind
I know I can
Cover a mountain with the palm of my hand
[Chorus]
Oh babe you can make history young again
You could rewrite it, you could decide
The things that should or shouldn`t have been
You could look at me in the scheme of things
Oh babe you could make history young again
I can watch the weeks sweeping by
I can recollect the hearts hanging out to dry
When the world shuts down
I can touch my fears
I can hear lost youth ringing in my ears
But I lost nothing
When I gained you
You just blew me away with yesterday`s news
And when you run your fingers
Down my spine
It`s like throwing a switch on the hands of time
Chorus
[Bridge]
Ancient minds, ancient lives
Got a way of comin` round
If I knew then what I know now
I`d find a way back, back in time
I`d make it back to you somehow
Back to:
