Lyrics

[00:01.12] The Sounds - Underground
[00:03.40]
[00:11.29] Let us go back to the time when the underground
[00:14.59] Was the place where we all used to hide away
[00:17.90] Let us go back to the streets where it all begun
[00:21.24] How could I know, it was the last time I saw you?
[00:26.82]
[00:28.12] Seventeen and believed in just anything
[00:31.40] Could be true, could be bad, something in between
[00:34.73] I recall all those lazy summer nights
[00:38.08] And all I knew was the time I spent with you
[00:43.84]
[00:44.46] I could easily stay, and never come home
[00:47.42] Looking out on the field like its never been changed
[00:50.88] The past is a place that you can never return to
[00:54.06] Even though people say that this is where you belong
[00:58.06] I could easily stay, and never come home
[01:01.14] Looking out on the field like its never been changed
[01:04.47] The past is a place that you can never return to
[01:07.56] Even though people say that this is where you belong
[01:11.51]
[01:11.72] I could always try to reach you
[01:17.92] And it's pumping through my veins
[01:20.87] And theres nothing I can do about it
[01:24.93] (though people say that this is where you belong)
[01:28.57]
[01:28.78] Let us go back to the time when the underground
[01:31.70] It used to be our place it belonged to us
[01:35.07] And I'd go back if I could but it's not the same
[01:38.45] And now I know, it was the last time I saw you?
[01:44.45]
[01:44.81] I could easily stay, and never come home
[01:47.86] Looking out on the field like its never been changed
[01:51.24] The past is a place that you can never return to
[01:54.36] Even though people say that this is where you belong
[01:58.46] I could easily stay, and never come home
[02:01.52] Looking out on the field like its never been changed
[02:04.72] The past is a place that you can never return to
[02:07.96] Even though people say that this is where you belong
[02:11.99]
[02:12.20] I could always try to reach you
[02:18.34] And it's pumping through my veins
[02:21.35] And there's nothing I can do about it
[02:25.15]
[02:25.38] I could always try to reach you
[02:31.72] And it's pumping through my veins
[02:34.68] And there's nothing I can do about it
[02:38.46]
[02:51.78] I could easily stay, and never come home
[02:55.49] Looking out on the field like its never been changed
[02:58.56] The past is a place that you can never return to
[03:01.68] Even though people say that this is where you belong
[03:07.63]
[03:19.06] I could always try to reach you
[03:25.58] And it's pumping through my veins
[03:30.04] And there's nothing I can do about it
[03:41.26]
