Sean McConnell - The Wonder Years Lyrics




I was raised in the blaze of a burnin' out sun
Between wars and before the old west had been won
That old American story of a boy and a girl
Driving with the windows down before the weight of the world

In the haze of the days before the buildings fell
Yeah we shined like a coin in a wishing well
Flying free as a bird in a bright blue sky
Never wondering why we never wondered why

But in my dreams, I see the queen of Ellis Island
She's holding pictures and they start to disappear
Standing there I can swear I see her crying
Saying goodbye to the wonder years

Ain't one thing in this life we can hold onto
Everything resurrects into something new
Don't shoot the messenger, I didn't build the game
I'm like you, I want everything to stay the same

But in my dreams, I see the queen of Ellis Island
She's holding pictures and they start to disappear
Standing there I can swear I see her crying
Saying goodbye to the wonder years

But in my dreams, I see the queen of Ellis Island
She's holding pictures and they start to disappear
Standing there I can swear I see her crying
Saying goodbye to the wonder years
