You Should Have Been There Lyrics

Nostalgia sets in

I'm submerged in the past

Flashes of memories

Good times that I've had

Everything feels different

From what it once was

Exploring the city with my friends

Getting into trouble being a kid

All of the old fights

The late nights

Bring a smile to my face

As times passes me by

Flashes of the past

Smiles and laughs

Man, I am glad

Of the times that I've had

You should have been there

It was the best

Surprised I made it with no arrests

Flashes of the past

Smiles and laughs

Man, I am glad

Of the times that I've had

You should have been there

It was the best

Surprised I made it with no arrests

Melodic Memories

Times were great

We were kids

Who grew into men

(We grew into men)

Flashes of the past

Smiles and laughs

Man, I am glad

Of the times that I've had

You should have been there

It was the best

Surprised I made it with no arrests

It feels good to have come so far

Even the bad times when things were hard

Glad that I can't go back

Even though I look back and laugh

But as a matter of fact

It made me the man that I am

Things are now great

I owe to the past

All of the people that I have met

All of the tears that were wept

[slow singing]

No more time to lose

I'm happy where I am

But I appreciate the memories

Melodies of the past

(Melodic Memories)

Flashes of the past

Smiles and laughs

Man, I am glad

Of the times that I've had

You should have been there

It was the best

Surprised I made it with no arrests

Flashes of the past

Smiles and laughs

Man, I am glad

Of the times that I've had

You should have been there

It was the best

Surprised I made it with no arrests

(I'm a lucky man)

Flashes of the past

Smiles and laughs

Man, I am glad

Of the times that I've had

You should have been there

It was the best

Surprised I made it with no arrests

Flashes of the past

Smiles and laughs

Man, I am glad

Of the times that I've had

You should have been there

It was the best

Surprised I made it with no arrests

(I'm a lucky man)
