lyrics

funny how we wait / never hesitate / to take no action at all / you and i decide / to go out back and hide / and stay there till the day we die / but it’s been so long / we almost don’t recall / what we’re doing here / and you said one time / we all were so alive / in nineteen eighty-five / funny when we walk / we beg the trees to talk / to find out what they have to say / my big brother found / a cathedral in the ground / it made us laugh and play / but it’s been so long / we almost don’t recall / what we’re doing here / we’d sing and shout through the night / we all were so alive / in nineteen eighty-five / funny how we shake / we tremble and we break / whenever you and i collide / we get stuck in the past / and the future doesn’t last / it’s a misplaced box of photographs / and it’s been so long / we almost don’t recall / what we’re doing here
