Lyrics

THINK ABOUT THOSE DAYS

WE USED TO TALK A LOT ABOUT
SOMEDAY GETTIN? OUT
AND LIVIN? OUR FANTASY
WELL, TALK WAS ALL IT WAS
BUT IT USED TO BE ENOUGH
TO KEEP US HOLDIN? ON TO OUR DREAMS
NOW I?M SITTIN? HERE
WATCHIN? THE SUN GO DOWN
ON THIS HIGHWAY OF MEMORIES

AND I THINK ABOUT THOSE DAYS
AND ALL THE PLANS WE MADE
I THINK OF YOU AND ME
AND HOW IT USED TO BE
BEFORE IT ALL SLIPPED AWAY
I THINK ABOUT THOSE DAYS

OH THOSE STARRY NIGHTS
AND CAMPFIRE LIGHTS
UNDER CLEAR COLORADO SKIES
HOW THE WINE USED TO FLOW
AND WE WERE ALL AGLOW
AND THE SMOKE WOULD GET IN OUR EYES
NOW I?M SITTIN? HERE
HOLDIN? MY LAST CIGARETTE
WATCHIN? THE COLD SUNRISE

AND I THINK ABOUT THOSE DAYS
AND ALL THE PLANS WE MADE
I THINK OF YOU AND ME
AND HOW IT USED TO BE
BEFORE IT ALL SLIPPED AWAY
I THINK ABOUT THOSE DAYS

I KNOW WE CAN?T GO BACK
MAYBE WE?RE BETTER OFF THIS WAY
STILL I WONDER
DO YOU EVER
STOP AND THINK ABOUT THOSE DAYS

AND I THINK ABOUT THOSE DAYS
AND ALL THE PLANS WE MADE
I THINK OF YOU AND ME
AND HOW IT USED TO BE
BEFORE IT ALL SLIPPED AWAY
I THINK ABOUT THOSE DAYS

Good song. Kept my interest, but I found it a little to repetitive at the end, a bit too many talked about those days. Perhaps replace the vocal with a bit more instrumental. Song needs a little more dynamics, there is very little movement in the volume flow. Excellent harmonies. Song has potential with a little bit of production adjustment. Thanks for sharing.

Engaging changes in tempo
Nice tight harmonies
Good lead guitar
Memorable hook
