16 Lyrics - Green Day

1 Every night I dream the same dream

2 Of getting older and older all the time

3 I ask you now, what does this mean?

4 Are all these problems just in my mind?

5 Things are easy when you're a child

6 But now these pressures are dropped on my head

7 The length I've gone are just long miles

8 Would they be shorter if I were dead?

9 Every time I look in my past

10 I always wish I was there

11 I wish my youth would forever last

12 Why are these times so unfair?

13 Look at my friends and see what they've done

14 Ask myself why they've had to change

15 I liked them better when they were young

16 Now all these times are rearranged

17 I look down and stand there and cry

18 Nothing will ever be the same

19 The sun is rising now, I ask why

20 The clouds are falling, here comes the rain

21 Every time I look in my past

22 I always wish I was there

23 I wish my youth would forever last

24 Why are these times so unfair?

25 Every night I dream the same dream

26 Of getting older and older all the time

27 I ask you now, what does this mean?

28 Are all these problems just in my mind?

29 Things are easy when you're a child

30 But now these pressures are dropped on my head

31 The length I've gone are just long miles

32 Would they be shorter if I were dead?

33 Every time I look in my past

34 I always wish I was there

35 I wish my youth would forever last

36 Why are these times so unfair?
