These are the Good Old Days

These days nostalgia is lost on me

I live for now instead of what will be

Too happy to look back on yesterday

I wish we could stay forever this way

Such beautiful moments go by too fast

Seconds, minutes and hours slip past

Until all are gone; the day will end

Knowing tomorrow you'll still be my friend

Together up to the stars we gaze

Singing, "These are the good old days"



When I'm with you I'm never judged

I'm beside you when my makeups smudged

My hairs in a mess and my jeans are torn

Others look at me to frown and scorn

But you stand by and hold my hand

I can always count on you to understand

But the sand keeps falling in the hour glass

And what is now, too soon will pass

Years will speed by, leaving us in a daze

All the while singing, "These are the good old days"



The time of our parting draws on apace

So I'll smile with you and save your place

Forever if need be until you come home

From wherever it is you've chosen to roam

And though these tears may fall from my eyes

I always knew we'd have to say our goodbyes

I have no regrets though it hurts me so

To look back on so long ago

So one last time, under the sun's warm rays,

We'll be singing, "These are the good old days"
