WE USED TO STAND SIDE BY SIDE
WE USED TO STAND FOR WHAT WAS RIGHT
WHO WOULD’VE THOUGHT WE WOULD DISAGREE
LET’S GET BACK TO WHERE WE USED TO BE

WE USED LOVE WITH OPEN ARMS
WITHOUT A QUESTION WITHOUT ALARM
NOW SOMEONE’S LOCKED THE DOOR
THREW AWAY THE KEY
LET’S GET BACK TO WHERE WE USED TO BE

WE FOUGHT SO LONG
WE FOUGHT THE WRONG
FEELS LIKE WE’VE LOST OUR WAY
WE’LL GET BACK THERE AGAIN

WE USED HOLD OUR HEADS UP HIGH
ALWAYS THE FIRST TO GET IN LINE
NOW WE CLOSE OUR EYES
AND PRETEND THAT WE DON’T SEE

WE USED TO STAND BY WHAT WE’D SAY
NOT TURN AROUND, NOT WALK AWAY
I WILL NOT RUN, YOU’VE GOT MY GUARANTEE
LET’S GET BACK TO WHERE WE USED TO BE

NOW TIME HAS PLAYED IT’S GAME ON YOU
WE’VE GOT THESE SCARS SHOWING THROUGH
WELL THAT’S ALRIGHT, THERE’S STILL A CHANCE FOR YOU AND ME
LET’S BACK TO WHERE WE USED TO BE
