I wrote down your name across the wall

We were 17 and we had it all

In any one of our dreams we become who we want to be with no risk at all

Everything else feels like the movies

I don't wanna be let down

Or washed away in the rain

Like a man in the ring knocked out

Black and blue from the pain

Don't wanna be let down

Or washed away in the rain

Why do we hang on the thread of a string

Ain't love a funny thing?

And summers were great

They turned into fall

'98 was the year we saw it all

And somehow were hung up and tangled in mem'ries

And now they're gone

And all of our yesterdays are history

I don't wanna be let down

Or washed away in the rain

Like a man in a ring knocked out

Black and blue from the pain

Don't wanna be let down

Or washed away in the rain

Why do we hang on the thread of a string?

Now I wanna fly

Wanna see where the moon meets the ocean

I wanna dive through the sky

'Til the world stops turning

I will fly to you

I will die for you

Will die for you

Ain't love a funny thing?
