The summer was endless, the days were too long,
But every minute felt like a lifetime of songs.
We made ships from the boxes, we made forts from the trash,
Every broken thing became something brand new in our hands.
Mothers called us inside, but we stayed out till dark,
Because the night held the magic we couldn’t ignore.
**[Pre-chorus]**
We didn’t need maps, we didn’t need plans,
Just a spark in our eyes and the courage to run.
Even when the wind turned cold and the rain started to pour,
We stood our ground and we swore we’d be back for more.
**[Chorus]**
Oh, this is our anthem, loud and so real,
Let the guitars scream what our hearts couldn’t tell.
From the yard to the stars, we were reaching so high,
Even if we fell, we knew how to fly.
Yeah, we built our own world with our bare hands and hope,
Now I sing this song to keep that fire alive—don’t let it go.
**[Bridge]**
Now the streets are quieter, the kids are all grown,
But I still feel that rush whenever I’m alone.
I close my eyes and I’m back there again,
In that dusty yard where the magic never ends.
So if the world gets too heavy and the days get too grey,
I’ll remember the kid who dared to believe anyway.
**[Guitar solo / instrumental break]**
(Плотный гитарный риф, нарастание, затем короткий «провал» на басу и барабанах, и снова взрыв.)
**[Final chorus]**
Oh, this is our anthem, loud and so real,
Let the guitars scream what our hearts couldn’t tell.
From the yard to the stars, we were reaching so high,
Even if we fell, we knew how to fly.
Yeah, we built our own world with our bare hands and hope,
Now I sing this song to keep that fire alive—don’t ever let it go!
**[Outro]**
Don’t ever let it go…
Just the echo of laughter and the taste of the wind…
Don’t ever let it go.
