Lyrics

I was a just a young kid with time to waste
Living out of my car, those were the days
We were all the wild ones, the wasted youth
Other than a dream, had nothing to lose

Ain't it funny how time flies
Fades into gold
Now I wanna do a drive-by
But I can't find the road

Back to wonderland
Where it all began
Everything was so simple then
Living life like our last weekend
Wish I could find my way
Back to wonderland

Carrie's in the valley, she's got a kid
Julie's still a waitress, livin' on tips
Sometimes we get together and shoot the shit
But it's not the same now, no, nothin' is

Feels like it was a movie that plays in my mind
Shadows of a past life, wish I could rewind

Back to wonderland
Where it all began
Everything was so simple then
Living life like our last weekend
Wish I could find my way
Back to wonderland

Didn't have a clue what we were doing
Or where we would end up, living off of nickels
And dimes and our young reckless love
We didn't ever think that time would ever come to an end
Now if I could, you know I'd run

Back to wonderland
Where it all began
Everything was so simple then
Living life like our last weekend
Wish I could find my way
Back to wonderland
