Sleepwalking Through Paradise

Sleepwalking through paradise

It takes so long to realize

That the wonder of your youth

Is a gift that you can lose

Things I once could not believe

Now desensitized my eyes can barely see

The sunrise hardly leaves me amazed these days

Nothing seems to do the trick

We lost it back in '96 when all we did

Was dream of someday being big

Now we dream of being kids again

Yawning at these scenic roads

Much less the daily miracles

Every marvel in this life

Has slowly been commodified

So when I feel a tingling

The more I strain the more

That feeling up and leaves

The sunrise hardly leaves me amazed these days

Nothing seems to do the trick

We lost it back in '96 when all we did

Was dream of someday being big

Now we dream of being kids again

Can we get it back

Have we missed our chance

Childhood slipping like

Water through our hands

Can we get it back

Have we missed our chance

Childhood slipping like

Water

Water

Water

The sunrise hardly leaves me amazed these days

Nothing seems to do the trick

We lost it back in '96 when all we did

Was dream of someday being big

Now we dream of being kids again
