In That World Lyrics

Can you remember

The days when they were simpler

Can you remember

Being the greatest pretender

Playing in the backyard

With a cardboard box as a cop car

Oh, to think of what I'd give

Just to go back and pretend

Cause in that world

I could do whatever I wanted

Be a firefighter or pilot

Be what I wanted to be

And in that world

I could be a superhero

Or an athlete that won a gold medal

No one said that I couldn't be

The only one with power was me

Do you remember

Being the greatest inventor

Or do you remember

The time we searched for buried treasure

Pretending in the backyard (backyard)

On an island never explored (explored)

It's all different, we're not kids

How did it ever come to this

And in that world

I could do whatever I wanted

Be a firefighter or pilot

Be what I wanted to be

And in that world

I could be a superhero

Or an athlete that won a gold medal

No one said that I couldn't be

The only one with power was me

Yeah

The only one with power was me

Cause in that world

You could have been the greatest captain

And traveled all of the islands

And challenged all the roughest seas

And in that world

You could have been a spy on a mission

To find out where the enemy's hiding

So many things that you could be

When we were kids in that world that was free
