Kings of John Payne
First 5 minutes
Go too fast
Hold that moment
And make it last
'cos nothing
Can buy back time
And lately I've been
Looking back on my life
All my friends
They always pulled through for me
And I know
That they'd all say the same
So if this world ever takes your faith when you need it most
Know after all these years
Some things never change
(Let's go)
I can't remember exactly
When it made me feel nostalgic
But the songs on my car stereo
Have started taking me way
Back in time
When my friends and I had 20 notes between us
No one knew what the future held or where our lives would lead us
I never had a silver spoon
I was careful not to peak too soon
We've had a lot of up's and downs
I'm glad I stuck with you
Cos all my friends
They always pulled through for me
And I know
That they'd all say the same
So if this world ever takes your faith when you need it most
Know after all these years
Some things never change
I've never had friends
Like the ones I met when I was 12
I mean, hey
Has anyone?
I still remember all those
Years and I go back to find that familiar sensation
With nothing
But the limits of my own imagination
Let me be a face in the crowd
'cos I'm not ready for this to be over
Take me the long way around
To the sound of the summer
With all my friends
They always pulled through for me
And I know
That they'd all say the same
So if this world ever takes your faith when you need it most
Know after all these years
Some things never change
It could be a while
Before we see each other again
It could be a while
We'll see each other again
And it'll be like it's always been
'cos time and distance don't mean anything
We were the Kings of John Payne
I'll never forget it
And though we go our separate ways
I still think about those glory days
We were the renegades
In the heat of the summer
Just 'cos I can't see it
Doesn't mean it's gone
Time can't touch it
The feelings strong
But if this world ever takes your faith when you need it most
Know after all these years
Some things never change
