  • Say goodbye to the halls and the classes
    Say hello to a job and the taxes
    The weekends with old friends spilling into 9 to 5 routine
    Tell me how you feel over and done with
    Like your life is a map with no compass to guide,
    At the bar drinkin' way too much
    We sing along to "Forever Young".

    So here we go again
    Wishin' we could start again

    Wendy run away with me
    I know I sound crazy
    Don't you see what you do to me?
    I wanna be your lost boy
    Your last chance, a better reality
    (Yeah)

    Wendy we can get away
    I promise if you're with me, say the word and we'll find a way
    I can be your lost boy, your last chance
    Your "everything better" plan
    Oh, somewhere in Neverland
    (Somewhere in Neverland)

    We'll start a life of the plain and the simple
    Of great times with far better people
    And weekends with our friends
    Laughing 'bout the wine that stains their teeth
    We'll talk about how your parents separated and
    How you don't wanna make the same mistakes as them
    I'll say it's all about stickin' it out
    And trying to feel forever young

    So here we go again
    Wishin' we could start again

    Wendy run away with me
    I know I sound crazy
    Don't you see what you do to me?
    I want to be your lost boy
    Your last chance, a better reality
    (Yeah)

    Wendy we can get away
    I promise if you're with me, say the word and we'll find a way
    I can be your lost boy, your last chance
    Your "everything better" plan
    Oh, somewhere in Neverland

    So here we go again
    Wishin' we could start again

    Wendy run away with me
    I know I sound crazy
    Don't you see what you do to me?
    I want to be your lost boy
    Your last chance, a better reality

    Wendy we can get away
    I promise if you're with me, say the word and we'll find a way
    I can be your lost boy, your last chance
    Your "everything better" plan
    Oh, somewhere in Neverland
    Oh, somewhere in Neverland
