1961
VERSE
I remember that first time
I looked into his eyes and he didn't know me
See I knew it was coming, I was told
That he was stuck in the body of an old man he didn't know
PRE CHORUS
These faded dreams keeping telling me
It's nothing like the movies
Nothing like they said it should be
Yeah I sure fell
Still hurts like hell
CHORUS
But life goes on
And the world keeps spinning
And memories tie right back to the beginning
But I held his hand
While his mind stayed young
I just wasn't born yet, in 1961
VERSE
So I'll take the photos, I'll show the past
Hoping that someday it will last
And I'll take the flowers, I'll play the role
I'll be that 1960's girl
PRE CHORUS
These faded dreams keeping telling me
It's nothing like the movies
Nothing like they said it should be
Yeah I sure fell
Still hurts like hell
CHORUS
But life goes on
And the world keeps spinning
And Memories tie right back to the beginning
But I held his hand
While his mind stayed young
I just wasn't born yet, in 1961
In 1961, in 1961
I just wasn't born yet
CHORUS
So life went on
And the world kept spinning
And his Memories tied,
right back to the beginning
So I held his hand
While his mind stayed young
I just wasn't born yet
