"Back In The Day" lyrics

Let's take a Kodak moment
Like the ones I saved way back then
Many tears on tissues
Now I laugh, cause that was then
Now we're here
Back in the days
We took numbers by the dozen
When we showed up
They had left us in the rain
Oh, the shame

As time bleeds away
Never waits for me, oh

Memories overlook what we tried to forget
I'm lost in the outer edge
Rivers deep, now shallow
As it flows we let go
And where we've been nobody knows

Back in the day when I was young
Back in the day
Back in the day when I was young
Back in the day
Back in the day when I was young
I'm not a kid anymore
But some days I sit and wish
I was a kid again

Another seven-day
I'm finished in the studio
Then back to school
No time to chill
That was normal
Getting changed in the back seat
Falling asleep, forgot our books
And that was real, nothing for free
But I don't think that I've ever missed out
On all the things that I thought were happening
Around me

A stone's throw away
Yesterday, for me, oh

Memories overlook what we tried to forget
I'm lost in the outer edge
Rivers deep, now shallow
As it flows we let go
And where we've been nobody knows

Back in the day when I was young
Back in the day
Back in the day when I was young
Back in the day
Back in the day when I was young
I'm not a kid anymore
But some days I sit and wish
I was a kid again

Just being honest
No broken promise
Cause you get back what you give
Keep on learning
360 turning
Watch it fall in place within

As time bleeds away
Never waits for me, oh

Memories overlook what we tried to forget
I'm lost in the outer edge
Rivers deep, now shallow
As it flows we let go
And where we've been nobody knows

Memories overlook what we tried to forget
I'm lost in the outer edge
Rivers deep, now shallow
As it flows we let go
And where we've been nobody knows

Back in the day when I was young
Back in the day
Back in the day when I was young
Back in the day
Back in the day when I was young
I'm not a kid anymore
But some days I sit and wish
I was a kid again
