Old Days New
Lyrics
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
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
