Once upon a time, it was paradise
One upon a time, I was paralyzed
Think I'm gonna miss these harbor lights
But it's time to let it go

Once upon a time, it was made for us
Woke up one day, it had turned to dust
Baby, we were found, but now we're lost
So it's time to let it go

I want my house in the hills
Don't want the whiskey and pills
I don't give up easily
But I don't think I'm down

So won't you slide away
Back to the ocean
I'll go back to the city lights
So won't you slide away
Back to the ocean
You'll slide away

So won't you slide away
Back to the ocean
I'll go back to the city lights
So won't you slide away
Back to the ocean
You'll slide away

Once upon a time, it was paradise
One upon a time, I was paralyzed
Think I'm gonna miss these harbor lights
But it's time to let it go

Once upon a time, it was made for us
Woke up one day, it had turned to dust
Baby, we were found, but now we're lost
So it's time to let it go

Move on, we're not seventeen
I'm not who I used to be
You say that everything's changed
You're right, we're grown now

So won't you slide away
Back to the ocean
I'll go back to the city lights
So won't you slide away
Back to the ocean
You'll slide away

So won't you slide away
Back to the ocean
I'll go back to the city lights
So won't you slide away
Back to the ocean
You'll slide away

Move on, we're not seventeen
I m not who
I used to be
You say that everything's changed
You're right, we're grown now
