good old days

My mother told me, "Don't you wait for better times"

You'll never find them if you're standing in the line

Always remember how to live, not just survive

And even on my worst nights I trust that I'll be fine

'Cause oh

Someday when I grow old

With most of my story told

I'll look at the life I made and say

Let me tell you about the good old days

Every memory and dumb mistake

Yeah, I'm talking about

The late nights, the good time, the mess that I made

Those were the good old days

The good old days

Too many people in this world that can I please

Too many versions of myself that I could be

I don't want to let my fear decide what's right for me

Before I lose the control, I'm gonna take the driver's seat

'Cause oh

Someday when I grow old

With most of my story told

I'll look at the life I made and say

Let me tell you about the good old days

Every memory and dumb mistake

Yeah, I'm talking about

The late nights, the good times, the mess that I made

Those were the good old days

Let me tell about my first heartbreak

And the ones that took the tears away

Yeah, I'm talking about

The drunk text, the regrets, the dreams that I chase

Those were the good old days

The good old days

I know, I know these are the good old days

I know, I know these are the good old days

I know, I know these are the good old days

Those were the good old

These are the good old days
