=======================  Do you remember  Look at me  And all the things we'd said we'd be  We'd beat the house  We'd push the odds  We'd take it all we had the cards  With years to burn  And years to trash  Living lies based on flash  But somehow reaching for the stars  I think we went a bit too far  Got to get back  Got to get back  I never meant to take it this far  When everything you touch turns gold  Can weigh you down  Can make you old  When metal doesn't ring the same  Reaction from inside your brain  And all those years we offered up  To gods who couldn't get enough  And though we still stay up all night  The mornings aren't quite as bright  Got to get back  Got to get back  I never meant to take it this far  And all those things we thought we'd learned  As we watched our bridges burn  While standing in the afterglow  I guess we gave them quite a show  When John Wayne caught the last train out  And Spock and Kirk have had enough  And no one's left to beam me up  Got to get back  Got to get back  I never meant to take it this far
