La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful girl
To save you from your old ways
You pray for forgiveness
'Cause watch out, here she comes
Don't look a thing like Jesus
But I talk like a gentle soul
Like you imagined
When you were young
Can we climb this mountain?
I don't know
Higher now than ever before
And I know we can make it if we take it slow
Let's take it easy and watch it grow
We're burning down the highway skyline
On the back of a hurricane
That started turning
When you were young
Started turning
When you were young
And sometimes you close your eyes
And see the place that you used to live
When you were young
Back when you were young
They say the devil's water
It ain't so sweet
Don't have to drink it right now
But you can go ahead and dip your feet
Every once in a while, hey
Every once in a while
You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful girl to
Save you from your old bad ways
Pray for forgiveness, boy
Watch out, here I come
And I don't look a thing like she does
But I talk like a gentle soul
More than you ever know
I never look a thing like she does
But I talk like a gentle soul
More than you'll ever know
You were young
Like when you were young now
Said I'll never look a thing like she does
But I talk like a gentle soul
More than you'll ever know
