Times Gone By

I remember way back when
Many moons ago before we were men
We were just kids having fun
Never knowing when it was done
We'd stay out late til the lights came on
Ducking and diving, singing a song
Football until sun had set
Those days we'll never forget

Looking back on the times gone by
Never seeing how the years did fly
Reminiscing times gone by
Never knowing it was the last time

The bike rides until the legs ache
All chilling out by the lake
Pulling capers that made no sense
In reality we meant no offence

Letting tyres down, graffiti on the wall
Lobbing eggs and skipping school
Getting into scrapes and falling out
Mates again without a doubt

Looking back on the times gone by
Never seeing how the years did fly
Reminiscing times gone by
Never knowing it was the last time

I wish we all could go back one day
That's before we're all old and grey
One by one we all moved on
Time ticks on, life's marathon

We'd still meet up for a chat and a beer
Conversations now just about the career
Going back there one last time
Knowing everything turns out just fine

Looking back on the times gone by
Never seeing how the years did fly
Reminiscing times gone by
Never knowing it was the last time

Looking back on the times gone by
Never seeing how the years did fly
Reminiscing times gone by
Never knowing it was the last time
