I recall when I was young oh

I will play and always having fun

With the neighbor next to me

And we'll play until the setting sun

Try to be the best among the others

In a game call the spider battle

Those were the days of my past

Few years later when I got to school

And was late for lesson all the time

Always day dreaming in the class till

I don't even know the lesson's done

Then my teacher always tell

Me never ever be lazy again

As the days go on and on

Candle light and sandy beach

Finally give away my first kiss

Mother said I was too young to

Fall in love and then I will one day regret

So love was over but I do miss her

Those were the days of my past

Just when I left my high school and

Got my first job in a salesman

Working hard all day and night

No one there to lend a helping hand

Daddy told me not to worry

And said that I should go on step by step

What can I say now what can

I do now those were the days of my past

Then once day I settled down

With the only one I really love

Got a small family with two kids

That is what I'm always hoping for

But I still remember having fun with all my friends

When I was young

I miss my home town

I miss my old friends

Those were the days of my past

Oh I miss my home town

I miss my old friends

When will I see them ag
