One, two, three, four, five years go by I don't really know why, I don't really know why Six, eight, nine, eleven years go by I don't really know why, I don't really know why I still feel the same way I did when I was seventeen I still look over my shoulder, waitin' for the world to change But these are the good old days These are the good old days These are the good old days And I think I'd like to stay Oh, I'd like to stay Oh, I'd like to stay One, two, three, four, five years ago I didn't see a belly with a child on the inside Six, seven, eight, ten years ago, I thought I knew about love I only knew about the fight I look back and I realize all those times I was lonely Praying for someday to hurry up and come and save me But these are the good old days These are the good old days These are the good old days And I wish that I could stay I wish that I could stay I wish that I could stay These are the good old days They're to stay These are the good old days And the more that you let go The faster the time goes The darker the night is The lighter the Moon glows But these are the good old days These are the good old days One, two, three, four, five years from now I hope I'm still gettin' down I hope I'm still around But six, seven, eight, ten beers ago I had a revelation All's well right now It's all good right now It's all good right now It's all good right now But these are the good old days (good old days) These are the good old days (these are the good old days) These are the good old days (good old days) And I wish that I could stay These are the good old days (good old days) These are the good old days (these are the good old days) These are the good old days (good old days) I wish that I could stay These are the good old days (good old days) These are the good old days (these are the good old days) These are the good old days (good old days) And I wish that I could stay I wish that I could stay And I wish that I could stay These are the good old days (and I wish that I could stay) These are the good old days (these are the good old days) These are the good old days (these are the good old days, yeah) These are the good old days (these are the good old days, yeah) These are the good old days
