Different Times (lyrics)

Published on 20 June 2022 at 23:05

Twenty went by faster 

than the blink of an eye

Each week a new chapter

but the same old Friday nights

We all know life was simpler

I was young and far more wild

Didn't have to be a protector

cause I didn't know what loss felt like

 

ooooohhhh

Trust me these were very different times

 

We've been nomads and lovers

learned to smell heartbreak from a mile

Don't put friendship on the back burner

show em love or say goodbye

We all know life was simpler

I was ignorant with a blissful mind

Just some friends maybe a guitar

many glasses of cheap wine

 

ooooohhhh

Trust me these were very different times

 

I remember

we used to dance all night

Singin' songs together

serenading the sky

Each weekend we'd party

till the break of sunlight

We were all together

We were all together

 

Well I'd say those years were brighter

before you stood six feet from my side

Adventures everyday of summer

now just me my guitar and some wine

Is it weird that nostalgia gives me comfort

at least I had time to fly

The memories are sweeter

but the bitter lies in the goodbye

 

ooooohhhh

Trust me these were very different times

 

I remember

we used to dance all night

Singin' songs together

serenading the sky

Each weekend we'd party

till the break of sunlight

We were all together

We were all together

 

I remember

we used to dance all night

Each weekend we'd party

till the break of sunlight

We were all together

We were all together

 

Lookin' back I know I'm happier

wish I'd savored the moments and held on tight

Epiphany of my twenties

findin' peace and the light in my life

I know they won't all stay forever

but I'll cherish them with a smile

Now the only ones singin' together are chirping crickets and moonlight

 

oooooohhh

 

Crickets and moonlight
