Caught myself looking back, flipping to that old page.
I swear I've read it more times than I remember, but the feeling never changed.
So I thought we'd go back if I said the right words.
Never mind time and growing older, just the thought of that old warmth.
It's true when they say 'there's no place like home.'
Five four and two. It means so much more to me.
And now these old streets, they leave us animals restless.
Everywhere's a temporary residence, and I miss how it used to be.
We decorated the ceiling every night, and forgot how to walk in straight lines.
We made a mess of ourselves, but we did it better than anyone else.
And the bar scene, it grew. It swelled like a wave and it took us out to sea.
And all I wanted from the moment it started was to walk back through that door, and I miss how it used to be.
So thanks for the memories. Thanks for being there.
Thanks for the slurred confessionals, the blurred blackouts, and never-ending nights.
All I can really say is that house still feels like home,
And it's distant now but I'll never let it go.
We blared our music loud for the neighbours, and I don't think they'll ever miss us,
Or those late nights trying to fight us and never doing it.
We were young, we were dumb, yeah, we were invincible.
And all I wanted from the moment it started was to walk back through that door.
But we keep the party alive, singing..
