Back in the Day

Lyrics

We stood at the end of the summer Taking a look at the sun We walked to the edge of the suburb Wondering what had begun And how is a boy in a new pair of shoes Supposed to get up without hurting When nothing is certain but twitching at curtains Nothing is further from getting you further And back in the day when the way and the summers were long I'm in the way when once all I could do was belong I keep looking back and it's misting Something is caught in my eye Time keeps on turning and twisting When good can be made into bye From the tip of my tongue it's all coming out wrong How can I tell you I love you When where we are standing I'm not understanding Where we go next, is it best just to guess And back in the day when the way and the summers were long I'm in the way when once all I could do was belong Do you have to soldier on alone You don't have to shoulder all the load alone And day's going fast and I can't let it pass I'll always have something to tell you But where we are standing I'm not understanding Where we go next, is it best just to guess And back in the day when the way and the summers were long I'm in the way when once all I could do was belong
