Pollution

Lyricist: Jonah Kagen     Composer: Jonah Kagen

I was 14 the first time that I left home
Not one drop of pollution, no taste of the cold
I remember that winter when snow was just snow
Running free full of dreams and a heart of gold

Then all at once it was over all I knew
All at once I got older and outgrew you
I just need to get back and I don't know how

Oh forgive me my darling I let you down
I don't know where you are and I need you now
I'd do anything, I'd give up all I have
I want you back, I want you back, I want you back

Now I'm 23 and I still have dreams
But now I'm dreaming to be how I used to be
And I stay up making peace with the irony
Oh I'll waste away with this shame washing over me

Then all at once it was over all I knew
All at once I got older and outgrew you
I just need to get back and I don't know how

Oh forgive me my darling I let you down
I don't know where you are and I need you now
I'd do anything, I'd give up all I have
I want you back, I want you back, I want you back

I want you back, I want you back, I want you back
I want you back, I want you back, I want you back
