The Wonder Years – Leavenhouse. 11:30. lyrics
[Verse 1]
I think it was 1999
That seems about right
Right where Maple and 8th Street collide
I think it was at that place and time
We came to decide the next ten years of our lives
[Verse 2]
I feel there were reasons why
Cause I think we felt lost sometimes
In overcrowded high schools
We're just getting by
So Brian sings "I am my own mountain."
I feel like I'm waiting for my time, my time
[Chorus]
Hey, we're complicated
There's tables full of records and homemade zines and
Hey, we're underrated
And though we weren't changing the world, it was the world to me
[Verse 3]
In about six years, we'd evolved
And centered it all
Right on second where Mitchell left off
It was a cold October fall
VFW hall
Singing songs while my friends sang along
[Verse 4]
Some days the cops get called
But no, we won't knock this off
We're diving off of pool tables, we're piling on
And when we're cleaning up, VFW Mike gets drunk
He tells us about girls he got in Vietnam
Best dude
[Chorus]
Hey, we're complicated
There's tables full of records and homemade zines and
Hey, we're underrated
And though we weren't changing the world, it was the world to me
[Bridge]
This town sounds dead when I come through, lately
I can't forget the ways he shaped me
When I come back, it's like I'm singing
"Last Chance Rhode Island" all over again
I think it was 1999
That seems about right
Right where Maple and 8th Street collide
I think it was at that place and time
We came to decide the next ten years of our lives
[Verse 2]
I feel there were reasons why
Cause I think we felt lost sometimes
In overcrowded high schools
We're just getting by
So Brian sings "I am my own mountain."
I feel like I'm waiting for my time, my time
[Chorus]
Hey, we're complicated
There's tables full of records and homemade zines and
Hey, we're underrated
And though we weren't changing the world, it was the world to me
[Verse 3]
In about six years, we'd evolved
And centered it all
Right on second where Mitchell left off
It was a cold October fall
VFW hall
Singing songs while my friends sang along
[Verse 4]
Some days the cops get called
But no, we won't knock this off
We're diving off of pool tables, we're piling on
And when we're cleaning up, VFW Mike gets drunk
He tells us about girls he got in Vietnam
Best dude
[Chorus]
Hey, we're complicated
There's tables full of records and homemade zines and
Hey, we're underrated
And though we weren't changing the world, it was the world to me
[Bridge]
This town sounds dead when I come through, lately
I can't forget the ways he shaped me
When I come back, it's like I'm singing
"Last Chance Rhode Island" all over again
