what happened to that?

Nine to five, you walk the door
Tired as never before
The day was long,
But you did nothing wrong
It's what you wanted all along

And every sacrifice you made
It paid off and now you're great
You killed the voice that said "you can't", now it's dead
But why'd you let it in your head?

Every now and then
I think of all the nights we spent
Non-stop believing
Awake and dreaming
Of all the expensive things we couldn't have

We were only kids
Our hearts were full of hopes and dreams
We knew the kind of people we wanted to grow up to be, and we'd give it all we had to make it real
What happened to that?

You support yourself, you're fine
Steady job, big house and wine
All you wished for, is standing in line
And you've got everything but time

Every night you stare outside
Sleepless, counting moving cars
If you could travel forth in time
and see what you've become
Would you keep on wishing on the stars?

Every now and then
I think of all the nights we spent
Non-stop believing
Awake and dreaming
Of all the expensive things we couldn't have

We were only kids
Out hearts were full of hopes and dreams
We knew the kind of people we wanted to grow up to be, and we'd give it all we had to make it real
What happened to that?
Can we just go back?
