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 waitin for the world to change.

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

I'd like to stay

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 something 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

I wish that I could stay

I wish I could stay.

These are the good old days

I could stay

These are the good old days

And the more that you let it go

The faster the time goes

The darker the night is

The lighter the moon glows.

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 getting down

I hope I'm still around

But 6,7,8,10 beers ago

I had a revelation all is well 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.

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.

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

I wish that I could stay

And I wish that I could stay

These are the good old days

And I wish that I could stay.

These are the good old days

These are the good old days

These are the good old days

These are the good old days

These are the good old days

These are the good old days.
