In '38, things were not the same
In ’38, we had lost the game
Our cities burned down
Our love was in the ground
In the ground

At 38, you are so mature
At 38, we are all so sure
You'd get them all back
Living with no fall back
Fallback plan

So don't look back now
You should have known
In your heart, you believed in miracles
Your heart’s history is spherical
And dark, an arc

In '38, you won't be the same
In '38, you will change your name
All that it could have been
So many children saved

In '38, history won't learn
In '38, all our books will burn
You'll be the last chance
To remember our past
Don’t let go of 38

And don’t look back now
You should have known
In your heart, you believed in miracles
Your heart's history is spherical and dark
We believed in miracles
Our heart’s an ark
