I remember playing games

Wishing we were older then

We were so much younger then

Those were the days

I remember holding hands

Thinking it would never end

We were so in love back then

Those were the days

Those were the days of innocence

And we were so naive

You would lie down in the grass

So tangled up in me

Always wasn't just a word

But something to believe

We had our entire lives to waste

Those were the days

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Those were the days

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Time was so much slower then

Seven turned to seventeen

Somewhere in the in between

Those were the days

Back before we realized

Hearts were small and fragile things

We said, "I do", with jelly rings

Those were the days

Those were the days of innocence

And we were so naive

You would lie down in the grass

So tangled up in me

Always wasn't just a word

But something to believe

We had our entire lives to waste

Those were the days

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Those were the days

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

I still have the note you wrote

Said, "I'll miss you darling, be back soon"

Four pictures from a photobooth

You were laughing, I was kissing you

And kissing you

God, I'm missing you

Nothing ever stays the same

Glad we didn't know it then

'Cause we were so much younger then

Those were the days of innocence

And we were so naive

You would lie down in the grass

So tangled up in me

Always wasn't just a word

But something to believe

And I still miss you in a thousand ways

Oh, those were the days

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Those were the days

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Those were the days

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Those were the days

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
