[Verse] Back to '87 when we thought we ruled the world Rockin' out in letter jackets hair with the curls Friday nights were everything under neon lights Hopes as big as prom queens reaching for the heights [Verse 2] Sneakers on the blacktop late to every class Passing notes and whispers might never make 'em last First crush at the lockers innocence on fire Mix tapes and mixt feelings hearts on a wire [Chorus] We were young we were bold we were out of control Dancing in the hallways with our hearts and our souls Rooftop dreams up high in the sky Back to '87 where we’d never say goodbye [Bridge] Arcades and comics dollars saved for songs Summer days extending nights were never long Roller skates and heartbreaks love and silly fights Back to '87 under the starlit nights [Verse 3] Graduation came and went caps thrown to the air Chasing dreams and schemes like we hadn't a care Flash and glam we were rebels on parade Back to '87 our memories won't fade
