I think the lyrics are based on a live performance recording:
When we first met we were kids, we were wild, we were restless
And after a while, I grew coarse, I grew cold, I grew reckless
I hold this memory, hold you so close to me, whispered,
"Will we always last?"
Lately it feels like I'm asleep and I just can't wake up
Pacing the floor, want to call, but I can't so I hang up
Sharing a seat on the train with a lady who's crying has ruined her make up
Now I see just how young, how scared I was
Eyes closed tight, throwing punch after punch at the world
Sarah, is it ever gonna be the same?
Sarah, is it ever gonna be the same?
Said goodbye to all the places that I used to go
Said goodbye to all the faces that I used to know
Nothing lasts forever...
I guess by now, I should know...
I should know.
There ain't a thing I can say that will ever repair
You had so much advice, and yet couldn't share.
Maybe someday, we will look back on this and we'll smile,
but right now I can't bear it.
Now I see just how young, how scared I was,
Eyes closed tight, throwing punch after punch at the world.
Sarah, is it ever gonna be the same?
Sarah, is it ever gonna be the same?
