He lived in the house just down the road
Became best friends when we were ten years old
My mama said come home when it's dinner
But we went out 'til long after dark
I never thought that we'd grow up and fall in love one day
Every night we rode our bikes 'round town
Staying out until dawn
And we learned how to swim in the neighbors yard
Back then
Way back when
We used to ride our bikes 'round town
Writing stories in the dark
Had our first real kiss
We where under the stars
Back then
Way back when
We are not the same way as before
But all the things we did can't be ignored
My mama said come home when it's dinner
But we stayed out 'til long after dark
Never thought that we'd grow up and fall in love one day
Every night we rode our bikes 'round town
Staying out until dawn
We learned how to swim in the neighbors yard
Back then
Way back when
We used to ride out bikes 'round town
Writing stories in the dark
Had our first real kiss
We where under the stars
Back then
Way back when
