[Intro: young Jess and granddad(?) homemovie]
And here's Pop!
I have trouble focusing on you, Mitchel
[Verse: Jess]
I remember that first time
I looked into his eyes
And he didn't know me
See, I knew it was comin', I was told
That he was stuck in the body of an old man
He didn't know
[Pre-Chorus: Jess]
These faded dreams
Keep telling me
It's nothin' like the movies
Nothin' like they said it should be
Yeah, I sure felt: 'still hurts like hell'
[Chorus: Jess]
But life goes on
And the world keeps spinnin'
And memories turn
Right back to the beginnin'
But I hеld his hand
While his mind stayed young
I just wasn't born yet
In 1961
[Instrumental: young Jess and granddad homemovie]
Poppy!
(?)
[Verse: Jess]
So I'll takе the photos
And I'll show the past
Hopin' that someday it will last, oh, mmh
And I'll take the flowers
I'll play the role
I'll be that 1960s girl
[Pre-Chorus: Jess and Matt]
These faded dreams
Keep tellin' me
It's nothin' like the movies
Nothin' like they said it should be
Yeah, I sure felt: 'still hurts like hell'
[Chorus: Jess and Matt]
But life goes on
And the world keeps spinnin'
And memories turn
Right back to the beginnin'
But I held his hand
While his mind stayed young
I just wasn't born yet
In 1961
[Refrain: Jess and Matt]
In 1961
In 1961
[Bridge: Jess]
No, I just wasn't born yet...
[Chorus: Jess]
So life went on
And the world kept spinnin'
And his memories turned
Right back to the beginnin'
So I held his hand
While his mind stayed young
I just wasn't born yet...
[Outro: granddad] homemovie
Oh, it's recording now!
And here's Pop!
I have trouble focusing on you, Mitchel
[Verse: Jess]
I remember that first time
I looked into his eyes
And he didn't know me
See, I knew it was comin', I was told
That he was stuck in the body of an old man
He didn't know
[Pre-Chorus: Jess]
These faded dreams
Keep telling me
It's nothin' like the movies
Nothin' like they said it should be
Yeah, I sure felt: 'still hurts like hell'
[Chorus: Jess]
But life goes on
And the world keeps spinnin'
And memories turn
Right back to the beginnin'
But I hеld his hand
While his mind stayed young
I just wasn't born yet
In 1961
