Hey, you know everybody's talking about the good ol' days, right?
Everybody, the good ol' days, the good ol' days
Well, let's talk about the good ol' days
Come to think of it, as bad as we think they are
These will become the good ol' days for our children
But why don't we, uh, try to remember that kind of
September when, when life was slow and, and oh, so mellow
ย
Try to remember, and if you remember then, follow
Oh, why does it seem that the past is always better?
We look back and we think the winters were warmer
The grass was greener, the skies were bluer
And smiles were bright
Can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line?
And if we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we, could we?
Memories, light the corners of my mind
Misty watercolor memories of the way we were
ย
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another for the way we were
Ah, can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line?
And if we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we, could we?
Memories may be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter we will remember
Whenever we remember the way we were
Remember the way we were
Do do do do do do do
