Dreams - Friska Viljor

22 years ago I was 15

I had a body full of hormones

and a heart full of dreams

that’s when you came to me and said

let’s make something of our lives

22 days later we had made plans

to go out to see the world

it was the journey of our lives

that’s when life came in between

and that journey would never begin

I wonder what we could have been

childhood friend

we would write songs with silly lyrics, about girls that we thought we loved

we used to drink wine behind the school yard

and smoke cigarettes to make us look cool

we prepare to go to the dances

with all the butterfly’s in our hearts

and we would dream of all of the endings

of the stories we were going to start

22 years ago when we were 15

we used to talk about the things

that really mattered to us most

it was life and love and death

do you remember how we used to set

22 years late and I don’t know

how to answer all the questions

we would ponder long ago

it’s a mystery it seems

how to find love and keep it you know

it’s happiness from long ago

my old friend

we would write songs with silly lyrics, about girls that we thought we loved

we used to drink wine behind the school yard

and smoke cigarettes, make us look cool

we prepare to go to the dances

with all the butterfly’s in our hearts

and we would dream of all of the endings

of the stories we were going to start
