Nobody Knows

I remember running wild and free

Me and all my friends would meet

In the valley where the climbing tree grows

And in her branches we would play

She would keep our secrets safe

From hidden dangers of the world below

And we could solve the mystery

If we could only count the rings

And see the story only they could show

How old it is how long it's been

Since loving hands had planted it

How long it's gonna live nobody knows

Is love like this

A magic feeling better left alone

Can we hold it

Or is it just a thing that comes and goes

Nobody knows

I remember shooting fireworks

Out into the universe

We'd light 'em up and watch 'em disappear

Like days that vanished in a haze

Off into the milky way

I wonder where on earth went all those years

Now I could try to win your trust

Say lots of things and make things up

But in the end that wouldn't make it so

The more you ask the more you live

The more you try to question it

The more the answer is nobody knows

Is love like this

A magic feeling better left alone

Can we hold it

Or is it just a thing that comes and goes

Nobody knows

Nobody knows
