Good Old Days Lyrics

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 years go by,
I don't really know why,
I don't really know why,
7, 8, 9, 11 years go by
I don't really know why
I don't really know why
I still feel the same way I did when I was 17,
I still look over my shoulder, waiting for the world to change.

CHORUS
But these are the good old days
These are the good old days
These are the good old days
and I think I'd like to stay
Oh, I'd like to stay
Oh, I'd like to stay

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 years ago I
didn't see a belly with a child on the inside,
6, 7, 8, 10 years ago I thought I knew about love,
I only knew about the fight.
I look back and I realize all those times I was lonely,
praying for some day to hurry up and come and save me.

But these are the good old days
These are the good old days
These are the good old days
and I wish that I could stay
Oh, I wish that I could stay
I wish I could stay
And I know that you like all the faster the time goes, the darker the night is, the lighter the moon is.

These are the good old days
These are the good old days

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 years from now I hope I'm still gettin' down, hope I'm still around, but
6, 7, 8, 10 beers ago I had a revelation all for right now,
It's all good right now
It's all good right now
It's all good right now

These are the good old days
These are the good old days
These are the good old days
And I wish that I could stay
