G D/F#
Here's to the twilight
F C
Here's to the memories
These are my souvenirs
My mental pictures of everything
Here's to the late nights
Here's to the fire light
These are my souvenirs
My souvenirs
Em C
I close my eyes and go back in time
G D/F#
I can see you smiling, you're so alive
We were so young, we had no fear
We were so young, we had no idea
|G |D/F# |F |C|
that life was just happening
|G |D/F#| F |C|
Life was just happening
G D/F#
Here's to your bright eyes
F C
Shining like fireflies
These are my souvenirs
The memory of a lifetime
We were wide eyed with everything
Everything around us
We were enlightened by everything
Everything

You were just a child then, and so was I

We were so young, we had no fear
We were so young, we had no idea

That nothing lasts forever
Nothing lasts, nothing lasts
You and me together
Were always now or never

We were so young, we had just begun
A song we knew but had never sung
It burned like fire inside our lungs

And life was just happening
(nothing lasts, nothing lasts forever)
