Owl City - Firebird Lyrics
We used to talk all night and not say a word
When I would hop into your red Firebird
And, man alive, we would drive just to drive around town
'Cause in your car we understood and figured out
That everything changes
Tell me why I look back and I wanna cry
Sometimes I feel like we grew up too fast
You and I had the time of our younger lives
Sometimes I sigh and think about the past
But it's alright, cause everything changes
A basement full of boys building homemade bombs
AJ cut his finger and said "go get your mom"
I saw it all through the windshield of my white truck, Troy
'Cause everything changes
Everything changes
Tell me why I look back and I wanna cry
Sometimes I feel like we grew up too fast
You and I had the time of our younger lives
Sometimes I sigh and think about the past
But it's alright, cause everything changes
Hey Billy, remember when
It was just us (it was just us)
Pretending we were Nash and Coral
On the school bus (on the school bus)
I wouldn't change a thing, 'cause everything changes (changes...)
Life is different now and that's okay with me
I moved away and you started a family
But deep inside you and I are still the same kids
'Cause you're my brother and that won't ever change
Even though everything changes
Tell me why I look back and I wanna cry
Sometimes I feel like we grew up too fast
You and I had the time of our younger lives
Sometimes I sigh and think about the past
But it's alright, yeah it's alright
There's a new guest room in my parents' home
The carpet got replaced a couple years ago
Because it isn't my bedroom anymore
There's new photographs on the freezer door
But it's alright, 'cause everything changes
(Everything changes)
We should talk all night and not say a word
('Cause everything changes)
Let me hop into your red Firebird again

Which is better? Owl City Firebird? Or Galantis Firebird?
Just imagine he does a collaboration with Half Alive?
So many Stand By Me vibes in this song...
I doubt everything changes
I'm probably still gonna like this song...
Now this hits nostalgia
#FireBird 🔥
Enjoy your success forever beautiful friend thank you 🙏🏻
Listening full volume with speakers on full volume and everything on full volume :))✌️
I am glad that Owl City still produce the same songs like then. Every album is amazing!
Why is no body talking about the homemade bombs part!? Am I missing something?
This song made me realize how fast I grew up it feels like just last year I was a little girl now I’m a teen almost in high school
“ we used to talk all night and not say a word”

OMG i rember this it was on the raido once
I had a Firebird...Trans Am actually...I miss that car and that time in my life...
put it on 1.25 speed doubles the hype!!
Many years later im still listening to owl city
There are 41 dislikes and those dislikes are people that have no friends or emotions
is it just me or some parts of the song is about the walking dead?
Wrong song, the one you're talking about is Bird With A Broken Wing.
Im so happy that Owl City is still here for me <3
jcbshortfilms on the owl city subreddit pointed out that 12 seconds in (right after 'when i would hop into your red firebird') you can faintly hear a car starting!
Such a pretty song
This is my favorite song of the album
Change the red Firebird to a red Challenger convertible, and change the white truck to a black Daytona, and you've got the story of my life.
i wanna go to their concert !!!
Seriously man... I've been looking for these kinda songs ma whole life....😋 All I've ever found were those with despicable f-word and else....😑
When you came back to play minecraft.
Adam be sayin' everthing changes, but he hant changed from an amazing singer in like 10 yrs.
Its crazy.... I totally feel this song. Im going onto high school and i feel like I'm caught between being a kid and having everything change.
Yeah Everything Changes but that's okay to me because you are still my favorite#Adam
Are we not gonna enjoy new songs this year? :'(
This song sounds REALLY good loud. Adam your music is absolutely AMAZING
don t you ever change your vibe,it different,it special,it exotic,it unique!!
sending big love from Algeria to all of you
this song is making me cry
This gives me such feels.
The main thing about owl city is that all the songs have an inner meaning...😇😇
i love ur music
I like how the truck is named Troy. I now have my first car, a Chevy Uplander, and since it's big and red, I named it Clifford like the dog, cause that was one of my favorite shows when I was little...
uM aCtually its called a pHoeNix
This reminds me of my infancy! Owl City never had a song related to drugs, s*x and other bad influence delivered in our lives..
We used to talk all night and not say a word.
Don't you love people who you can talk to without really saying anything?😊
Dad: Turn that off...
Me: Why??
Dad: We have bigger speakers upstairs.
Bet NO kid has EVER heard that! EVER.
@willworknow will
Me: hold my earphone
This is my favorite song from this album
Firebird reminds me of my brother Jon he's a great brother he takes me to a bunch of different places to eat lunch
🚹🚹🚹🚹🚺🚺🚺🚻🚻🚻
More like fireFLIES
Ik I'm late but I am finding out about ur music now and I am absesed with this song shooting star and fireflies
Times when people listen to fireflies now its firebird .. everything changes
hats off for those idiots who dislike this video
Definitely one of my favourite of his album.
We use talk all night and not say a word 😎
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
Turn and face the strange
Ch-ch-changes
Just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I can't trace time
*Previous:* Fireflies
*Now:* Firebird
*Next:* Firepterodactyl?
Your big big big Chinese fan is here. I listened The Salt Water Room when I was a middle school student, and now I'm working for my own family. You always have very nice songs without any dirty words.
I like to say this a bad song TO ME.(ps plz dont crucify me)
2019 ...
Everything Changes
I just missed my prom.
I just wanna cry.
I love this song SOOOO much
cause really, "Everything Changes"
and love the melody and lyrics
Blessed that I'm living in the same time as you
(sorry for my bad english if I wrong)
plus)I love you Adam Young! - (A fan of Owl City from Korea
)
The Cinematic concert tour was REALLY GREAT!!
TOO BAD I can't search your songs of 'Cinematic' in korean platform (I can't buy and listen your song. It's really sad.)
I love this song, but I have to wonder why the 1080p version of this video looks like it was rendered in 480p?
I love this.
I made this likes to 3.7k :)
It amazes me how clear and well-organized is the mixing in his tracks. Everything has its place in the mix and thanks to that, the end result is very integral and pleasant to ear. And the song itself also resonates with me, and brings out many nostalgic feelings, which I love about the entire Cinematic album. Definitely one of your best, Adam!
One of my favorites ❤️
not to interested in the life of his girlfriend, and her brother. I don't care to listen to their voices on the album either.
I love this song, I really appreciate it because I drive a red firebird.
🔥🔥🔥
Firebird Fireflies
Life is different now and thats okay with me
I moved away with my family
But it's alright cause I got owl city
Just 145k views really ? humanity don't understand the art of music
Firecar
use that Adam.
It'll work out don't worry.
This guy needs more views and subs
Ladies and Gents and Phoenixes, this is my fabulous car, Firebird!
Thy name says it all.
Mans Ferdinand is way better...
This song sounds a lot better on Youtube than it did at his Seattle concert. He did it slower in person (probably because he was playing a gazillion instruments by himself lol). Was still pretty good though!
My brother passed away this summer. 😥 I want to cry everytime I hear this song.
AHHH I love this song :D
This is actually good
I had a blast last night seeing you live at the house of blues in anaheim!! Thanks for giving us the opportunity to see your performance! :) Been a fan of you since Fireflies and Vanilla Twilight!!
Since I was 14 and now i am 22 , i love your all songs because it so catchy, and i cried when i remember the day being young and your song makes me feel happy when i hear it. Your my inspiration! My idol. Please make again a song although a little bit listening to your song. Make a song to your fans , Please🙏🙏🙏
*Hello there! Fellow **_Owl city_** Citizens!*
kind of similar to deer in headlights
He played this live last night and it was fantastic!
Grew up to fast😭😭😭😭😭i hate it
Yeah Everything Changes 😢
I grew up in remote village far away from a town.So, most of Adam Young's songs are quite emotional to me.
'Firebird' reminds me of my childhood lives when my mom was still alive. However,my mom death, when I was 5 years old, in 2000 takes away my cheerful childhood life.
#OwlCityfanSinceFireflies
Leaving elementary school was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. I spent 6 years there. I grew up there. I watched my friends and peers grow up too. I hated school, but deep down I loved that place.
I love the use of paradox!
"you're my brother and that won't never change,Even though everything changes!! " Man I don't know how Adam find these So Heart-touching words!!
This song speaks to me SO much right now
My uncle’s name was Billy, we lost him when I was very little and, I don’t remember him very well. For some reason, this song reminds me so much of him. It’s nice ❤️
oh man... the memories I have with my brother are precious, and it is hard to look back and live in the future. But it's okay, those have made us who we are, and everything changes.
Why this man has so few views? He deserves alot more views than he has!
Pure irony.
I love Owl City! His songs are so underrated! They are awesome! Owl City is definitely my favorite singer!
its funny how i thought this song was just ok only but whenever im down i listened it ,and it has soothing vibes to it.and i really like it very much now.its one of my fave from the album
Adam you never miss to make me cry and goosebumps all over my body. Stay blessed ❤️
LOVE this song ♥️
Also kinda makes me think of the Winchester brothers...
So basically "Photograph" by Nickelback
