lyrics

Back In The Day

The sun’s coming up I’m trying to remember
Just where I was when the sun went down
The moon and the stars have gone to go sleeping
The ghosts of the night are leaving this town


CHORUS

Back in the day, don’t you remember
The piper would play when we came around
Love was a song we sang all night long
I want to get back, back to the day


What’s up with you, did I hear you sighing
Did I see a tear appear in your eye
Did you mean to say you heard a bell tolling
Did I hear you say you might step aside

CHORUS

Back when the stars were endlessly shining
We wore the night like a crown
Sweet sweet romance we were constantly finding
Our feet never touched on the ground
