lyrics

i'm going back to a time when i was young
(sleep now and dream of all the)
i'm going back and i want you to come
(things you're gonna be when you get back)
down by a river we'll sit and live and love
(i swear it's gonna be alright)
down by a river we'll curse the sky above

i'll take you back to that time at our old place
(sleep now and rest your weary head)
i'll take you back to the time i held your face
(i swear i don't want to be dead)
down by the river how we lay and laughed and cried
(now that you're hear by my side)
down by the river how you said you want to die

but i'm making the same mistakes i made
and i can't find anything i crave
but you don't have to worry anymore

but god takes whatever he wants to take
but we make whatever we want to make
but we're gonna find a way, i know

i'm going back to a time when we were old
(wake up and think back to the)
i'm going back to a time that isn't told
(things you did when you were still quite young)
up on the hill we'll watch as the skies burn
(i swear it's gonna be alright)
up on a hill we'll try our best to learn

that nothing matters and there's freedom in that fact
(death paints a shadow in my mind)
that nothing matters and although the sky is black
(no-one sees they're all so blind)
we've got each other, and isn't that enough?
isn't that enough?
isn't that enough?
