Every day's a new day
And the sun keeps coming up
But nothing's quite the same
As when me and you were pups
Clear eyes, full hearts on the TV screen
Taylor Swift before she went mainstream
Flags everywhere when the towers went down
You and me at sixteen, just fooling around
We gotta hang on to these moments
Yeah, we gotta make them last
The days are long but life is short
So I'm gonna raise my glass
They say there's no time like the present
I say there's no time like the past
Yeah, the present can kiss my ass
There is no time like the past
Now every day's a hard one
Too much work, too little fun
Yeah, nothing's quite as good
As when me and you were young
Pop's store went bust when the Walmart came
Grandma's in a home, forgot her own name
Everyone's angry about most everything
You and me almost thirty, just hanging by a string
We gotta hang on to these moments
Yeah, we gotta make them last
The days are long but life is short
So I'm gonna raise my glass
They say there's no time like the present
I say there's no time like the past
Yeah, the present can kiss my ass
There is no time like the past
Boy, you do more whining than a brand new pup
Life is change and you gotta keep up
Roll with the punches and do what you can
These kids need a daddy and I need a man
Every day's a new day
And the sun's still coming up
Things may be different,
But that's just growing up
Sadie's smiling face on the Fourth of July
How mama beat cancer with that new MRI
The phone in your pocket plays every George Strait song
You and me almost thirty and still going strong
We gotta hang on to these moments
Yeah, we gotta make them last
The days are long but life is short
So I'm gonna raise my glass
They say there's no time like the present
I say there's no time like the past
But we can put them both together
Yeah, we're gonna make it last
