Summer day 7 years old and I took a ride on my bicycle,
I can still feel my face against the wind,
A backpack full of my favorite toys,
Singing songs just to make some noise,
Is a good way for a day to begin,

I remember when life was simple way back then,
Now I'm trying to see through those eyes again, through those eyes,

CHORUS
If I could turn back time I'd go to 1989,
Where every day was full of chasin' dreams,
Yeah I may be grown up but maybe I should try,
Livin' like it's 1989,

Deep inside this Texas heart there's an innocence underneath the scars,
Waiting to be called outside to play,
Wanna feel like a wide eyed kid, wanna put it all back into perspective,
God You're great just because You're great,

It is so uncomplicated with You here, with You here,
You make the person that I once was reappear,
You reverse the years

CHORUS

I'm sorry that I made it something complicated,
I am ready now it's not too late,
Everyday I'm learning it's all about returning,
I'm living my life with child-like faith,
I'm sorry that I made it something complicated,
I am ready now it's not too late,
Everyday I'm learning it's all about returning,
I'm living my life like I could

Turn back time and go to 1989,
Where every day was full of chasin' dreams,
Yeah I may be grown up but maybe I should try,
Livin' like it's 1989
I'm livin' like it's 1989
