Lyrics:

[Intro]
Woo-ooh, woo-ooh, woo-ooh
Woo-ooh, woo-ooh, woo-ooh

[Verse]
Once upon a time, it was paradise
Once upon a time, I was paralyzed
Think Im gonna miss these harbor lights
But its time to let it go
Once upon a time, it was made for us
Woke up one day, it had turned to dust
Baby, we were found, but now were lost
So its time to let it go

[Pre-Chorus]
I want my house in the hills
Dont want the whiskey and pills
I dont give up easily
But I dont think Im down

[Chorus]
So wont you slide away?
Back to the ocean, Ill go back to the city lights
So wont you slide away?
Back to the ocean, la-la-la, youll slide away
So wont you slide away?
Back to the ocean, Ill go back to the city lights
So wont you slide away?
Back to the ocean, la-la-la, youll slide away

[Verse Reprise]
Once upon a time, it was paradise
Once upon a time, I was paralyzed
Think Im gonna miss these harbor lights
But its time to let it go
Once upon a time, it was made for us (For us)
Woke up one day, it had turned to dust
Baby, we were found, but now were lost
So its time to let it go

[Pre-Chorus]
Move on, were not seventeen
Im not who I used to be
You say that everything changed
Youre right, were grown now

[Chorus]
So wont you slide away?
Back to the ocean, Ill go back to the city lights
So wont you slide away?
Back to the ocean, la-la-la, youll slide away
So wont you slide away?
Back to the ocean, Ill go back to the city lights
So wont you slide away?
Back to the ocean, la-la-la, youll slide away

[Outro]
Move on, were not seventeen
Im not who I used to be
You say that everything changed
Youre right, were grown now
