Lyrics
[Verse 1] [Spoken intro: conversational, raw] Yeah, we were just kids back then, you know? Running down those old tracks, nothing but the shirts on our backs. But we felt like kings. listen. [Verse 1: pop-rap, driving four-on-the-floor, acoustic guitar, warm piano] Remember how the asphalt used to hold the summer heat Two shadows racing down a quiet, empty street You had your hand in mine, whispering of running far We had no money but we aimed for every single star Now years have gone and painted over all those faded scenes But i still see the glow of what our wild freedom means No maps, no plans, just the beating of our youthful hearts A bittersweet romantic tale before the winter starts [Chorus: dramatic transition, melodic dubstep, massive wobble bass, explosive half-time drums, huge emotional sung vocals] And we were flying high, untouchable and free! Locked inside a love that redefined reality! Hear the thunder crash, feel the ground begin to shake! For every vow we made is a promise we won't break! Oh, we were free! Yeah, we were free! [Verse 2: instant drop-back, intimate pop-rap, light arpeggios, warm piano, deep bass] [Spoken: conversational, intimate] Crazy how a sound can bring it all right back to life. Just like that. [Verse 2: pop-rap, driving four-on-the-floor, acoustic guitar, warm piano] Now i look back at the choices that we had to make The roads we traveled and the promises we had to break But what we had was raw, a love that never truly dies I still can feel the wind and see the freedom in your eyes Just conversational and real, i tell the story clear As light arpeggios are spinning through the atmosphere We found our heaven in the middle of a dusty road Two hearts escaping from the heavy, suffocating load [Chorus: dramatic transition, melodic dubstep, massive wobble bass, explosive half-time drums, huge emotional sung vocals] And we were flying high, untouchable and free! Locked inside a love that redefined reality! Hear the thunder crash, feel the ground begin to shake! For every vow we made is a promise we won't break! Oh, we were free! Yeah, we were free! [Outro: instant drop-back, intimate acoustic guitar, conversational spoken vocal] Yeah. Still free. Still you and me. Just a memory on the wind. Yeah.
