V1:
We've grown a lot since those days
Just kids running under the sun
Didn't face these present day pressures
Just laughing while holding hands
No clue of the bigger plans
Just folding paper planes
And launched them in the air
Chorus:
Dreaming they'd take us to Rome
Hear languages we've never known
Take off for foreign lands
Cityscapes and soft sand
Traveled the world inside our heads
Made castles out of sheds
No real clue of the great expanse
Of the world beyond the fence
V2:
We'd sit and watch them fly
No care if they'd fall soon
Cuz in our minds they took real flight
Heading off to somewhere cool
On those flights there were no rules
We sure dreamt big, me and you
Back when we were folding paper planes
Chorus:
Dreaming they'd take us to Rome
Hear languages we've never known
Take off for foreign lands
Cityscapes and soft sand
Traveled the world inside our heads
Made castles out of sheds
No real clue of the great expanse
Of the world beyond the fence
Bridge:
Thought back to those days
Folded a piece for old times sake
Watched as I threw it off the roof
Replayed the dreams we used to
Chorus:
Dreaming they'd take us to Rome
Hear languages we've never known
Take off for foreign lands
Cityscapes and soft sand
Traveled the world inside our heads
Made castles out of sheds
No real clue of the great expanse
Of the world beyond the fence
Outro:
Those were the days
Back when we flew paper planes
