Young At Heart

At the top of the parking lot I'm just trying to find my parking spot When something hits me in the back of the head And I fall to the ground, Don't worry I'm not dead A man points his gun at me And says give me all your money So I pulled out my wallet And said do you take debit or credit And he was very angry now And he punched me right in the brow And he picked me up with both his hands And he threw me off the building This is the part of the story Where everything is going to get gory And as I fall from the sky I cry Screaming, I don't want to die And just when my hope was leaving me Who do you think that I would see? No one other than Spiderman So Save Me Spiderman I'm falling fast so please take my hand I'd pray to God to save me But praying to God is like praying to Spiderman (Repeat) Maybe there was no gun man Maybe I wasn't pushed Maybe I was diving Falling head first Maybe I was just testing What I was taught as a kid That you can never be saved Unless you fall So Save Me Spiderman I'm falling fast so please take my hand I'd pray to God to save me But praying to God is like praying to Spiderman So Save Us Spiderman We're falling fast so please take our hands We'd pray to God to save us But praying to God is like praying to Spiderman

In a book we didn't write In a page I didn't print You were a damsel in distress And I was savior to be sent You we're tied up the tracks And I had the wind against my back I was riding on a white horse You we're tied up to the dirt floor So i filled Bubblegum with Helium We floated in the sky And never stopped to ask the questions Why are you always here when trouble is so near? And if a rescue is what you call this Then let's start it off right with a kiss I mean anything can happen Anything can happen tonight On the back of the Black Pearl Sat my beautiful girl And Captain Jack Tied her hands behind her back And said "Today is your last day Because you're going to walk the plank" But from underneath the ship I pulled out my Bubblicious And I filled Bubblegum with Helium We floated in the sky And never stopped to ask the questions Why aren't they firing their guns? Or their Ginormous cannons? And as the sunset started to peak You leaned over and kissed my cheek I mean anything can happen Anything can happen tonight When i found out about the pen and the page And that the whole world was my stage I stayed up all night and wrote for days To know that I can create And not just participate Instead of reading stories of the shelf I'll write a few for myself So scribble scribble dot dot then a line If you want a story well here's mine I filled Bubblegum with Helium We floated in the sky And never stopped to ask the questions Why is my favorite color blue? And why can't I keep my eyes off you? And all of this Started with a kiss Then anything can happen Anything can happen (X4) Anything can happen tonight

Lite Brite 05:11
Dreams never die At least that's what we believe when we were five When the worst things lived underneath our bed Things that we created in our heads When everything that we dreamed Came to life the next day it seemed When every picture that we drew Came True So let's turn on the Lite Brites And paint the dark sky tonight Drawing dreams that disappear So let's turn on the Lite Brites And paint the dark sky tonight Drawing dreams that are still here We'd never listen to our parents Climbing up to the top of the fence We'd jump into a pile of dirt And get mud all over our shirts When we were always Cops and Robbers And Pirates and Ninjas and Warriors and Dragons When all we had was our imagination And no one to tell us no So let's turn on the Lite Brites And paint the dark sky tonight Drawing dreams that disappear So let's turn on the Lite Brites And paint the dark sky tonight Drawing dreams that are still here Inside of us The older we get We start to forget The dreams we had when we were young The song inside our heart we sung The older we get We start to forget The dreams we had when we were young The older we get We start to forget The older we get So let's turn on the Lite Brites And paint the dark sky tonight Drawing dreams that disappear So let's turn off the Lite Brites Because we finally realized We were in color this whole time
