I Remember The Days Lyrics

I remember the days when we'd ride home from school

And sing in the backseat, we thought we looked cool

We'd listen to your mom's old 70s CDs

By the time we were 12, we knew all of Dancing Queen

We couldn't wait 'till the day when we'd turn 17

Look at us now

So young and sweet

Maybe growing up isn't all it's cracked up to be

I remember the days life was so carefree

Not a worry in the world besides what's on Disney TV

The characters then seemed so grown up

When we rewatch them now they look so young

I remember the days life was so carefree

We'd put on little concerts for our friends and family

They'd take out the camcorder and put us on tape saying

"You guys are gonna make it someday"

Now your dad sends you to college and says get a real career

Even though your dreams are far away from here

You bring your guitar to your dorm complex

And sing in the stairwell every chance that you get

Hoping someday your songs will pay the rent

Until then, you study business management

To appease your dad at his old age

You really want to prove him wrong someday

I remember the days life was so carefree

Not a worry in the world besides what's on Disney TV

The characters then seemed so grown up

When we rewatch them now they look so young

I remember the days life was so carefree

We'd put on little concerts for our friends and family

They'd take out the camcorder and put us on tape saying

I'll show this again when you're famous someday

Now the VHS tapes sit in your childhood garage

Collecting dust next to your dad's old guitar

Cause he gave up on his dreams like he wants you to do

You can't break a cycle until you break through
