Back In The Day

It's been a while since I've left home But I'm coming on back today Kinda funny but I picture it only exactly as it Was back in the day Sure enough when the train pulls in There's so little that I recognize Is it the scenery or my selective memory Or just a simple fact that I gotta realize My friends have gone and their lives have Moved on and I guess that's just the way it is If this town has grown beyond my home I guess it all comes down to this I close my eyes and feel like it was back in the day But those times have long been through The dying of the light is gone But it's back in the day Like a wish that comes half true There was a time when it was easy to find a Hangout that you knew was yours by name And mine or not I could find the same spot but It's never gonna be the same I've been away and I've seen too much Looks like I've been moving on as well And when I started to not really belong I suppose I was unable to tell But I ain't sad and no it isn't bad It's just one more thing I'm coming to know If you're alive you didn't finish the ride No telling where it's going to go I close my eyes and feel like it was back in the day But those times have long been through The dying of the light is gone But it's back in the day Like a wish that comes half true It's been a while since I left home But I'm coming on back today Kinda funny but I picture it only exactly as it Was back in the day I close my eyes and feel like it was back in the day But those times have long been through The dying of the light is gone But it's back in the day Like a wish that comes half true
