All the things we've said and done have gone away
Into the blue imagination of someone else's mind
Photographs of you and me are all that's left behind
How could our lives have changed so much in the blink of an eye
Everything was right
We were young and full of life
Back in the day
You were the only one for me
Back in the day
You are the only one I need
Back in the day
Innocence and confidence have gone away
Now I'm left with the remnants of a life that's fallen apart
What can I do with the memories left in my head?
I can't live a life that I've left so many years ago
Everything was right
We were young and full of life
Back in the day
You were the only one for me
Back in the day
You are the only one I need
The future was in our eyes
We had nothing to spend but time
Back in the day
I wouldn't trade it all for today
Back in the day
There ain't no going back to the day
Back in the day
There ain't no going back to the day
Back in the day
Back in the day
There ain't no going back to the day
Back in the day
