Nights, flying down the 10, nearly 2 am

Happiness begins

Days lifted in a haze, we weren't just a phase

We weren't just pretend (just pretend)

I remember low lows and high highs

We threw our hands up, palms out to the skies.

It was fun when we were young and now we're older

Those days when we were broke in california

We were up-and-down and barely made it over

But I'd go back and ride that roller coaster

It was fun when we were young and now we're older

Those days that are the worst, they seem to glow now

We were up-and-down and barely made it over

But I'd go back and ride that roller coaster with you.

Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh

Woo-ooh-ooh (oh, oh)

But I'd come back and ride that roller coaster.

Faith led me to the clouds, reaching for the ground

'cause life was upside down

Now everything has changed, we found better days

But I still hear the sound.

I remember low lows and high highs

We threw our hands up, palms out to the skies.

It was fun when we were young and now we're older

Those days when we were broke in california

We were up-and-down and barely made it over

But I'd go back and ride that roller coaster

It was fun when we were young and now we're older (oh)

Those days that are the worst, they seem to glow now (yeah)

We were up-and-down and barely made it over

But I'd go back and ride that roller coaster with you.

Woo-ooh-ooh (yeah, with you)

Woo-ooh (with you, with you)

Woo-ooh-ooh (oh, oh)

But I'd come back and ride that roller coaster.

It was fun when we were young and now we're older

Those days that are the worst, they seem to glow now

We were up-and-down and barely made it over

But I'd go back and ride that roller coaster.
