World I Used To Know

(album: Angels + Animals - 2014)

Set the scene and close the door
Lights go down, and we don't make a sound.
And yeah we want so much more,
But nights like this are perfect for now.
Never gonna make it stop
You can't make it stop.
Never gonna make it stop
You can't make it stop.

This is the town I used to know
This is the school we used to own.
This is the wind that used to blow
This is the world I used to know.

Lying underneath the bed
Your ceiling never felt so far away.
And tomorrow when we say goodbye,
We'll promise that we'll always stay the same.
But we're never gonna make it stop
You can't make it stop.
Never gonna make it stop
You can't make it stop.

This is the town I used to know
This is the school we used to own.
This is the wind that used to blow
This is the world I used to know
This is the world I used to know.
This is the world I used to know.

We wished for lots of things
When we were seventeen.
We're waiting for it now
Waiting for it now, oh.
I've got a million dreams
There is a life I see.
I'm waiting for it now
Waiting for it now, oh.

We wished for lots of things
When we were seventeen.
We're waiting for it now
Waiting for it now, oh.

This is the school we used to own
This is the school we used to own.
This is the school we used to
This is the school we used to
This is the school we used to own.

This is the world I used to know
This is the world I used to know.
This is the world I used to know.
This is the world we all outgrew.
