the wonder years - sean mcconnell lyrics
[verse 1]
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
[chorus]
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
[verse 2]
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
[chorus]
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
[chorus]
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 feel her dying
standing there i can swear i see her trying
oh, standing there i can swear i see her crying
saying goodbye to the wonder years
to the wonder years
