Sophie’s House

Savor the good days
Savor the long drive home
Savor the memories
Knocking on your door
Times that were dangerous
Times that were wonderful
The hours we wasted
Were hardly waste at all

Meet up at Sophie’s house
She had a basement
Everyone on the couch
Young and impatient
All of those long nights
Feel like an old friend
We’re dancing in new light
Times didn’t change it

(Time didn’t change it)
I, I, I
(Time that we wasted)
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
And now I stop, keep dreaming
Scratching up the ceiling
Why, tell me why, tell me why
Do I chase that feeling?
Wish that I could see I’m having the time of my life

Resting your head on my shoulder
Can’t help but smiling at it
Driving the road to nowhere
Time and time again

Meet up at Sophie’s house
She had a basement
Everyone on the couch
Young and impatient
All of those long nights
Feel like an old friend
We’re dancing in new light
Times didn’t change it

(Time didn’t change it)
I, I, I
(Time that we wasted)
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
And now I stop, keep dreaming
Scratching up the ceiling
Why, tell me why, tell me why
Do I chase that feeling?
Wish that I could see I’m having the time of my life
Babe, I’m having the time of my life

Remember those long nights
Summer before you left
I never cry
Just when it did happen
Remember those long nights
I remember all the lights
We nearly crashed
Taking all the longest drives
Times are changing
You and I are changing
Just let it be a new light
Oh, dancing in the new light
In the new light
In the new light

(Times didn’t change it)
I, I, I
(Time that we wasted)
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
And now I stop, keep dreaming
Scratching up the ceiling
Why, tell me why, tell me why
Do I chase that feeling?
Wish that I could see I’m having the time of my life
Babe, I’m having the time of my life
