Goonies Never Die!

Lyrics

Verse 1 Down by the creek behind the houses Looking for One-Eyed Willie’s gold BMX bikes and scraped-up knees Chasing stories waiting to be told That old tree fort was our headquarters A pirate ship above the yard Every stick was a sword, every trail a mystery Back when dreaming wasn’t hard Pre-Chorus We didn’t know those days were flying We thought forever was right where we were Chorus We were pirates on a backyard sea Lost Boys running wild and free Every cardboard box was a rocket car Back when Neverland wasn’t far Every summer felt like forever Every dream was written in the stars Funny how the things we swore we’d outgrow Turned into the things we miss the most Verse 2 First crushes and folded notes Passed around in homeroom class Nintendo after school on rainy days Sandlot dreams and home run blasts Everybody dreaming about growing up Never knowing we’d blink and it’d be gone Those were the days we thought would last forever Now they’re the ones we’re hanging on to Pre-Chorus Nobody told us those little moments Would someday be the ones we’d want back Chorus We were pirates on a backyard sea Lost Boys running wild and free Every cardboard box was a rocket car Back when Neverland wasn’t far Every summer felt like forever Every dream was written in the stars Funny how the things we swore we’d outgrow Turned into the things we miss the most Bridge Found an old shoebox in the attic Movie stubs and baseball cards A faded Polaroid from summer break Still had dirt stains from the yard Turns out One-Eyed Willie’s treasure Wasn’t buried somewhere on a map It was all those summers we thought would last forever And all the friends we never thought we’d miss like that ’Cause Goonies never die They live in every photograph Every tree fort, every scraped-up knee Every memory that takes us back Final Chorus We were pirates on a backyard sea Lost Boys running wild and free Every cardboard box was a rocket car Back when Neverland wasn’t far Every summer felt like forever Every dream was written in the stars Funny how the things we swore we’d outgrow Turned into the things we miss the most Outro Goonies never die They just grow a little older Goonies never die They live on in every story told Yeah, we spent our whole childhood trying to grow up Now we’d give anything for one more summer Back when Neverland wasn’t far… Hey you guys!!!… Goonies Never Die!!…
