Another year goes by
 Spinning as I drive
 I felt like I would leave this life I knew forever
 I didn't see it change
 But I know it's not the same
 I'd bring it back, if I could
 But I know, I'm not that clever

 Life's so short
 And it goes by fast
 And we can't get it back

 The world we knew
 It was so simple then
 Me and you
 Though it would never end
 Oh, what I wouldn't do
 To get back to
 The world we knew

 Something bring me back
 Yeah I remember that
 And nothing wrong
 The days were long and the sun was warmer

 Life's so short
 And it goes by fast
 We'll never get it back

 The world we knew
 It was so simple then
 Me and you
 Though it would never end
 Oh, what I wouldn't do
 To get back to
 The world we knew

 I remember nights
 Baby, you and I
 Taking what were given
 And I remember days
 Standing in the rain
 That's what I can't leave there
 Not a worry, not a care
 Everything was different
 But we're still here

 In the world we knew
 It was so simple then
 Me and you
 It was so simple then
 The world we knew
 Hey, oh yeah
 The world we knew

 Ohh, the world we knew
