"Old Navy Blue" lyrics

"Old Navy Blue"

Cut my teeth on memories from playgrounds to the bars
There's bigger boys with broken hearts who throw their weight around
But settle down, and be here now
Just watch the world revolve
Don't it feel so good to be so small?

Cast my mind behind and think of girls I used to know
Who've all moved on to better things
And found the ones they love
But it don't breed animosity, I'm not perturbed at all
Oh, man, it feels so good to feel so small

Well, it's sad but sometimes it's true
That your friends become the people you knew
Once upon a time, that you left behind
Old navy blue

No matter though how good things go
They've always got to end
I've said "goodbye" to family from the side of their sick beds
So, to all the ones I'll always love but faded out of view
Until we meet again, this one's for you

Well, it's sad but sometimes it's true
That your friends become the people you knew
Once upon a time, that you left behind
Old navy blue

Ain't it sad, the things that you'll miss
When you're gone and, the world, it still spins?
'Cause you're not here to stay
So, just be here today
Old navy blue
But, after all this time, you're still a friend of mine
Old navy blue, mm-mm, mm-mm
