Memories

Memories.
Don’t ever forget how it use to be, running wild with no regrets, and living free. Taking each day as it comes along, and having that feeling that nothing could go wrong. It all seems just like yesterday, even though it’s been a ce...ntury. I want to keep these memories, oh so tenderly.
Riding bikes with your friends, going for a swim at the lake, hoping these times will never end, because it was all so great.
Going to the fair, being part of the crowd, not having a single care, and laughing out loud.
The first time you held a young girls hand, and how you could feel the beat of her heart, at that very moment you knew you were a man, and life was about to start.
Don’t ever forget how it use to be, running wild with no regrets, and living free. Taking each day as it comes along, and having that feeling that nothing could go wrong. It all seems just like yesterday, even though it’s been a century. I want to keep these memories, oh so tenderly.
Sitting in the grass, watching the fire works on the fourth of July, hoping they would always last, and not having to say goodbye.
Walking in the park, going to a high school game, no longer being afraid of the dark, and everybody knows your name.
The first time you went to a dance, or drove your car, a little back seat romance, and how you dreamed as you looked at the stars.
Don’t ever forget how it use to be, running wild with no regrets, and living free. Taking each day as it comes along, and having that feeling that nothing could go wrong. It all seems just like yesterday, even though it’s been a century. I want to keep these memories, oh so tenderly.
Playing catch with my dad, and rolling a log with my best friend. A game of fetch with my dog, over and over again.
The crisp fall mornings, when the leaves crunch beneath your feet. You look up in the sky and the Eagles are soaring, what a wonderful treat.
Just being a kid and running free, that’s all that seemed to matter to me, no worries, no stress, life back then wasn’t a mess. Enjoying life as it was meant to be. Just being a kid and running free.
Don’t ever forget how it use to be, running wild with no regrets, and living free. Taking each day as it comes along, and having that feeling that nothing could go wrong. It all seems just like yesterday, even though it’s been a century. I want to keep these memories, oh so tenderly.
