Those Days

Remember when the streetlights came on, and we had to be home?
Remember when Elm Street came on? Couldn't watch it alone
Remember every prank call we made, and *69?
Remember trying to hit 88 to go back in time?
Remember when they played Purple Rain to our first slow dance?
Remember when we thought that first base was just holding hands?

Those days come back in the dead of night
Those days that felt like another life
What would you be doing back in those days?

We'd be turning up the stereo
And play it everywhere we'd go
And so did everyone we'd know in those days
And everybody got to fall in love
With every movie made for us
And God, I couldn't get enough of those days

Remember every poster we had hanging on the wall?
Remember every T-shirt we stole from the local mall?
(Ace of Spades by Motörhead)
Remember Guns N' Roses came out? We were standing in line
Remember front row at that show? Camped out all night
(Got so high, Sweet Child O' Mine)

Those days come back in the dead of night
Those days that felt like another life
What would you be doing back in those days?

We'd be turning up the stereo
And play it everywhere we'd go
And so did everyone we'd know in those days
And everybody got to fall in love
With every movie made for us
And God, I couldn't get enough of those days

The time we'd waste 'cause life could wait
What we'd give to relive just a single day
The time we'd waste 'cause life could wait
What we'd give to relive just a single day
Instead of turning the page

We'd be turning up the stereo
And play it everywhere we'd go
And so did everyone we'd know in those days
And everybody got to fall in love
With every movie made for us
And God, I couldn't get enough of those days

Those days that felt like another life
Those days come back in the dead of night
Those days that felt like another life
What would you be doing back in those days?
