I can feel the time closing in I can feel the years crawling through my skin And if I doubt myself I can count on the rain To cover the tears of this aging game
But I can count on you to play your part I don't miss a beat of your animal heart And when you push from behind I know I can Cover a mountain with the palm of my hand
And oh babe, you can make history young again You could rewrite, you could decide The things that should or shouldn't have been You could look at me in the scheme of things Oh babe, you could make history young again
I can watch the weeks sweeping by I can recollect the hearts hanging out to dry When the world shuts down I can touch my fears I can hear lost youth ringing in my ears
But I lost nothing when I gained you You just blew me away with yesterdays news When you run your fingers down my spine It's like throwing a switch on the hands of time
Ancient minds, ancient lives Got a way of coming around If I knew then what I know now I'd make it back to you somehow
