Description
There was a time when the whole world could fit into one summer evening - loud music from the car, slightly fake laughter, overly sweet alcohol, and dreams that seemed like they would come true by the following weekend. Back then, everything was simple. Or at least it seemed that way.
Hoarse voices, dusty roads, shirts smelling of smoke and insomnia - none of this was the beginning or the end, just the life we lived until we realized how much we had grown up. And even though now much is broken and plans have gone awry, the thought still warms the heart: once upon a time, we managed to do the impossible, and even sadness looked beautiful.
Lyrics and translation
Original
We would laugh 'til we cried
Gettin' drunk, gettin' high when we didn't know how
We were chasing the dawn
Gettin' lost in a song, tryna figure it out
Sometimes the things you want ain't what you need
Sometimes you know a dream is just a dream
But we
We made it look easy
We made it look easy
We were broke-down cars chasin' shootin' stars (ooh)
We were full of 17
And we made it look easy, didn't we?
Look at us, blood on blood
Same today as it was, been a hell of a ride
Left the pub, joined a band
Took more than I planned on a Saturday night
Sometimes the things you want ain't what you need
Sometimes you know a dream is just a dream
But we
We made it look easy
We made it look easy
We were broke-down cars chasin' shootin' stars (ooh)
We were full of 17
And we made it look easy, didn't we?
Didn't we?
Didn't we?
Jersey shore cover bands
Couple friends in the stands on a Saturday night
We made it look easy (we really made it look easy)
We made it look easy
We made it look easy
We were broke-down cars chasin' shootin' stars (ooh)
We were full of 17
And we made it look easy, didn't we?
We made it look easy (didn't we?)
We made it look easy (oh, didn't we?)
We made it (easy) look easy
Didn't we?
