Kelly Tisdell - Festival Kids Lyrics

You and Lucy and Molly and me
Used to party with the tribe at the festival at Reveille
Singing with the band at the top of our lungs
Grooving to the music and dancing with everyone
Passing a joint by the campfire light
Blowing smoke rings to see who could do it right
Silent disco at the top of the hill
You were twirling your lights and wands for the thrill of it

And we tripped on stars and love and fire in the night
We sailed on seas of music and magic and light
We climbed the mountains and skyscrapers in our minds
And we were born again so we didn't even have to try
To do what we did
We were festival kids

Hippie chicks and glow sticks pulsing in the crowd
Grinding to guitars that were crying out loud
Hula hoops riding on that big bass line
Drummer with the back beat to help us all kill time
You danced like a flame when you came to me
With flowers in your hair blowing in the warm breeze
Lying in the grass while the band played a slow song
I couldn't imagine that we'd have to say so long

And we tripped on stars and love and fire in the night
We sailed on seas of music and magic and light
We climbed the monuments and institutions in our minds
We were lost in the moment and found in the next
Still high from the feeling and ready to go again
We were festival kids

I look back now and I still see you
Strumming that guitar and singing Stella Blue
Voices in the sky like Chinese lights
Falling again like we did that night
Late night stage at the Goodtimes Grove
Acoustic jam and we danced real slow
I whispered in your ear and you disappeared
Now all I want to do is go back there with you again
We were festival kids
