Good Old Days  

He’s well past sixty-five, still talks about the war

And it was good to be alive, back in nineteen fifty-four

Those were the good old days, things sure were different then

Sometimes he lies awake and prays they’ll be that way again

But he knows time must move on, and everyday means change

And yesterday is gone and life will never be the same

 

He might seem old to you, but he’s not that old to me

I’m heading that way too and I know that's where I'll soon be

These are the good old days, I’ll wish myself back to

You’ll pretend to be amazed when I relive them then for you

But I know time must move on, and every day means change

And yesterday is gone and life will never be the same

 

And I could just cry, when I think about the way time flies

And the way things change and the countless times we say good-bye

Before we’re all through, and sometimes I do just sit and cry

 

But someone walked this road before me and He rolled that stone away

And someone’s been to Hell and back so I don’t have to fear the grave

And someone showed the way to Heaven and I’m gonna fly away

Talk about the good old days

 

Someone walked this road before me and He rolled that stone away

And someone’s been to Hell and back so I don’t have to be afraid

And someone showed the way to Heaven and I’m gonna fly away

Talk about the good old days

That day’s still coming!
