I could be wrong, but life didn't seem all that hard
When I was runnin' through the sprinkler
Of the next door neighbor's front yard
Telephone would ring, you just reached out and picked it up
You said hello, and that's the only way of knowin' who it was
I miss the days when I didn't miss the days when
I wasn't worried over nothin', just bein' a kid
Not reminiscin' 'bout a time that was simpler
Than the time that I'm livin' in
I miss the days when I didn't miss the days when
Those moonlit nights, sittin' out on her daddy's dock
While her daddy sat at home, watchin' every second on the clock
Those butterflies I got were just from reachin' out to touch her hand
Lawd, I'd trade a hundred Mondays just for one more Friday night like that
I miss the days when I didn't miss the days when
I wasn't worried over nothin', just bein' a kid
Not reminiscin' 'bout a time that was simpler
Than the time that I'm livin' in
I miss the days when I didn't miss the days when
Yeah, I'm reminiscin' 'bout a time that was simpler
Than the grime that I'm livin' in
I miss the days when I didn't miss the days when
I miss the days when I didn't miss the days when
Mmmm All the time
