No need to act surprised when I say
That I'm aware of how you wonder every day
Of what it is that makes you wanna go away
When there really is no reason for you not to stay
See, I know that there are things in your past you have to deal with
And I know you thought these wounds they would heal with time
It turns out they're much harder than you thought that they would be
And you feel it oh so deep every time you look at me
But if you stay by my side
Then one day when we've grown older
You'll look at me and smile
And you'll say
Do you remember
Back when we were twenty-six?
I used to feel like I was so much older
Do you remember
How I used to reminisce
And look back on what I should have done?
Isn't that absurd?
So I'm asking you to reconsider
Think of all the good times that we have had
Open up your heart, let all the pain pour out
And when you're through with tears, I will still be here
And if you stay by my side
Then one day when we've grown older
You'll look at me and smile
And you'll say
Do you remember
Back when we were twenty-six?
I used to feel like I was so much older
Do you remember
How I used to reminisce
And look back on what I should have done?
Isn't that absurd?
Now that I'm older
I feel much younger than back then
And somehow it seems
My soul's at ease
I know that there's still a day to seize
A day to seize
