Back to 2016

[Verse 1]
Met you in a crowded hallway
Plastic wristbands
X on my hand
You were laughing over the speakers
Glow paint running down where you stand
[Pre-Chorus]
We were too young to care how we’d feel tomorrow
Phone at 3 percent
Still you pulled me close
Every color in the air turned slow
You said
"Promise me this stays in your soul"
[Chorus]
Take me back to 2016
Hands up high
Hearts on our sleeves
We were strangers
We were everything
Loud and lost and seventeen
We could live inside that dream
Play it back on endless repeat
All that we had
All that we’d be
Take me back to 2016 (oh-woah)
[Verse 2]
All my friends are scattered in cities
All our inside jokes in the cloud
But I still taste that cheap confetti
Every time this drops in the crowd
[Pre-Chorus]
We were too young to think it would ever end
You wrote your number sharp on my wrist
Every second hanging by a thread
Every second felt like this
[Chorus]
Take me back to 2016
Hands up high
Hearts on our sleeves
We were strangers
We were everything
Loud and lost and seventeen
We could live inside that dream
Play it back on endless repeat
All that we had
All that we’d be
Take me back to 2016 (yeah, yeah)
[Bridge]
If I close my eyes
I’m right there
You’re still shouting over the air
"Don’t grow up
Just stay right here"
(let it stay, let it stay, let it stay)
[Chorus]
Take me back to 2016
Hands up high
Hearts on our sleeves
We were strangers
We were everything
Loud and lost and seventeen
We could live inside that dream
Play it back on endless repeat
All that we had
All that we’d be
Take me back to 2016 (oh-woah)
Take me back to 2016
