[Verse 1]
There's a big white house on a leafy street
On a summer's day in 1963
A station wagon's parked in the drive
With dents in the fender and wood on the side
There's kids and dogs and Instamatic hues
Squinting hard in the sun
Not just yet, but one day too
They'll be chasing what's already gone
[Verse 2]
You grow up tall and you grow up tough
Try to never admit not feeling good enough
They tell you, "Find your passion and you'll find your way"
Just trying to make it unscathed through every day
And it seems to happen nearly overnight
Life shows you who you've become
When there's no more mystery in the fading light
You're just chasing what's already gone
Hey, hey, hey
[Bridge]
Like the line that spells the far horizon
Moving with you as fast as you can run
Half your life you pay it no attention
The rest you can't stop wondering
What you should have done
Instead of chasing what's already gone
