I'd like to invite you
for just a little while,
for just a little while
to a place I used to go
when I was only seventeen.

Back to the place,
the place that I once knew.

I'd like to invite you
for just a little while,
for just a little while.
To a place I used to go
when I was only seventeen,
when I really had to know
however far it was
between a thought and a dream
or a ship and the core
of the world it's sailing from
and the world it's sailing to,
and why I'm running away,
running away from you.

And what I'd ever do
to go back to the place,
back to the place,
the place that I once knew.
