It's Friday night, county road
|
Seventeen, off we go
|
It's summertime, not a care in the world
|
Well I remember
|
|
My two best friends and me
|
Takin' a trip to feel the ocean breeze
|
Nothing but dreams as far as we could see
|
Oh I remember
|
|
When fillin' that tank would seem like such a big deal
|
And how the wind in my hair with the sun coming up made me feel
|
|
Oh well I ain't complaining (I ain't complaining)
|
About the way things are (About the way things are)
|
Not so long ago life was oh so easy now
|
(Now when that innocence seems so far) When it seems so far
|
What I wouldn't do to make the old days new
|
|
Jenny Thompson, our first date
|
I showed up early, she made me wait
|
Clumsy conversation with her dad
|
Well I remember
|
|
That bright red dress, the perfect fit
|
A romantic movie that I let her pick
|
We were both in the dark dreaming of love
|
Oh I remember
|
|
How her head on my shoulder seemed like such a big deal
|
And how the touch of her hand and that very first kiss made me feel, yeah
|
|
Well I ain't complaining (I ain't complaining)
|
About the way things are (About the way things are)
|
Not too long ago life was oh so easy now
|
(Now when that innocence seems so far) When it seems so far
|
What I wouldn't do to make the old days new
|
|
Well I've got a thousand reasons to smile these days
|
I've got a thousand great memories that I can't replace
|
But when there's weight on my shoulders and tears on my face
|
Even years from now I know I'll say
|
|
I ain't complaining
|
About the way things are
|
Not too long ago life was oh so easy now
|
Now when that innocence seems so far
|
When it seems so far
|
What I wouldn't do to make the old days new
|
|
I ain't complaining
|
About the way things are
|
Not too long ago life was oh so easy now
|
Now when that innocence seems so far
|
When it seems so far
|
What I wouldn't do to make the old days new
|
