18 Years - Daughtry

Sit down with an old friend

Like time it never stopped

From the cradle to the coffin

We drink until we drop

Yeah, we grew up on the same street

A small town under the hill, yeah

But dreams get lost and buried down

Deep inside the soil there, yeah

All day all night

Keep pressing rewind

All day all night

I remember

All day all night

Keep pressing rewind

All day all night

I remember

We were young, we were wild

We were halfway free

We were kids on the run

On a dead-end street

Looking back in the rear view mirror

You know the view used to be much clearer

But we’ll laugh and we’ll cry

Till there’s no more tears

And tonight can we just hold on to those 18 years

18 years

Some ran down the highway

To chase away their ghosts

Some are frozen in the same place

This time inside their bones

Remember throwing TVs off the overpass onto the tracks, yeah

But the trains roll on through the small town and never looked back, yeah

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

We were young, we were wild

We were halfway free

We were kids on the run

On a dead-end street

Looking back in the rear view mirror

You know the view used to be much clearer

But we’ll laugh and we’ll cry

Till there’s no more tears

And tonight can we just hold on to those 18 years

18 years

Yeah, we just hold on

Yeah, we just hold on

Yeah, we just hold on

On those 18 years

Yeah, we just hold on

Yeah, we just hold on

Yeah, we just hold on

18 years

18 years, yeah

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

When we were 18

We were young, we were wild

We were halfway free

We were kids on the run

On a dead-end street

Looking back in the rear view mirror

You know the view used to be much clearer

But we’ll laugh and we’ll cry

Till there’s no more tears

And tonight, can we just hold on to those 18 years

Can we just hold on

Can we just hold on

Can we just hold on

On those 18 years

Can we just hold on

Can we just hold on

Can we just hold on

Those 18 years
