You used to laugh at all my jokes
Drink my beer and bum my smokes
Where are you now, ya can't be found
I looked everywhere but you're not around

We used to spend the whole day just hangin' around
Lookin' at the pictures and listenin' to the sounds
can you take me back to those feelings again
do you still remember times like them?

In 1984 there was a terrible crash
she lost her life, I smoked some hash
beautiful person and beautiful dreams
and all the empty questions inbetweens

Is the world still turning, my fire inside burning,
or am I stuck here in second gear?
Does it even matter if I shine or if I shatter
am I living with my ghosts from yesterday?

Comin' down can be the hardest part
No one there to help you, you found it out
reach deep inside, inside your soul
you gotta find that love you can give to someone else

Is the world still turning, my fire inside burning,
or am I stuck here in second gear?
Does it even matter if I shine or if I shatter
am I living with my ghosts from yesterday?
