THINGS WE USED TO DO
Lyrics and music by Brian McNulty & Donovan Tucker. Copyright 2014 by Brian McNulty & Donovan Tucker. All rights reserved.

VERSE 1
We took a hike on my granddaddy's farm, hunting wildflowers.
You proudly hung on my arm, and we'd laugh for hours.
We cuddled in bed every night,
With both of us turned to the right.
We couldn't wait for the next morning's light
To start it all over.
We'd start it all over.

CHORUS:
Things we used to do
They're like the colors on an old bill-board:
Faded reds and greens and blues;
Memories that we both long for.
It was just me and you,
Loving the things we used to do.
Yeah it was me and you,
Loving the things we used to do.

VERSE 2
You sat as close as you could in my old Chevy.
You liked to look under my hood. We were both crazy.
We held hands. I opened your door.
You squeezed mine and I squeezed yours.
It's not like that anymore.
Time to start over.
Yeah time to start over.

BRIDGE:
Baby, I miss those times we shared together.
Maybe a kiss tonight will bring us back-- make us right.

CHORUS
Things we used to do
They're like the colors on an old bill-board:
Faded reds and greens and blues;
Memories that we both long for.
It was just me and you,
Loving the things we used to do.
Yeah it was me and you,
Loving the things we used to do.

GREAT COUNTRY SONG!

Nice intro! Great players. Well done, keep up the great work!

You very clearly painted some pretty nice pictures in this one! I appreciated the innuendo in some of the lines. Really nice recording as well!!! Nice job overall !!
