I can feel the time closing in   I can feel the years crawling through my skin   And if i doubt myself I can count on the rain   To cover the tears of this aging game      But I can count on you to play your part   I don't miss a beat of your animal heart   And when you push from behind I know I can   Cover a mountain with the palm of my hand      *Chorus*   And oh babe, you can make history young again   You could rewrite, you could decide   The things that should, or shouldn't have been   You could look at me in the scheme of things   Oh babe, you can make history young again      I can watch the weeks sweeping by   I can recollect the hearts hanging out to dry   When the world shuts down I can touch my fears   I can hear lost youth ringing in my ears      But I lost nothing when I gained you   You just blew me away with yesterday's news   When you run your fingers down my spine   It's like throwing a switch on the hands of time      *Chorus*   And oh babe, you can make history young again   You could rewrite, you could decide   The things that should, or shouldn't have been   You could look at me in the scheme of things   Oh babe, you can make history young again      Ancient minds, ancient lives   Got a way of coming around   If i knew then what i knew now   I'd make it back to you somehow      *chorus*
