We used to talk for hours on the phone
Every night, 5 in the morning
Throwing secret parties on below
Every time, my final warning

And love felt like eternity
Every heartbreak was a tragedy
Every feeling was insanity, it was
Not a second, not a memory I've lost

Those were the days
I couldn't wait to grow up
Life didn't go fast enough
Nobody told me
Those were the days
I didn't know what I had
Moments I'll never get back
Wish somebody told me
Those were the good old days

We used to sit for hours in my car
Making plans about our futures
Never knew we'd be so far apart
My old friend, where did I lose you?

And love felt like eternity
Every heartbreak was a tragedy
Every feeling was insanity, it was
Not a second, not a memory I've lost

Those were the days
I couldn't wait to grow up
Life didn't go fast enough
Nobody told me
Those were the days
I didn't know what I had
Moments I'll never get back
Wish somebody told me

That life don't always go the way you hope
And things get complicated when you're older
Now all I have are memories to hold

Those were the days
I couldn't wait to grow up
Life didn't go fast enough
Nobody told me
Those were the days
I didn't know what I had
Moments I'll never get back
Wish somebody told me
Those were the good old days
Those were the good old days
