It all started back then

When she first came around

She said "I feel so sorry for you fuck ups

But I love what you're putting down"

She said "You'll never guess where I've been

So don't even try"

You can think whatever you want

But some things just can't be denied

And this is just maybe one of those times

And hey, it's alright

We're all doing our best just try to survive

And hey, it's alright

We'll remember these days were the best of our lives

We spend our time gettin' wasted

Holding on to an impossible dreams

But they're all that we have

And they're all we'll ever need

I heard two people talkin' at the worker's club last night

They were pouring their hearts out to each other

And maybe they were just being polite

Well they kept on drinking and there words got heated

Then the truth came to light

She stood up on the table

Serenading the whole damn room

And started singing those love-sick blues

Yeah, she was singing those love-sick blues

And hey, it's alright

We're all doing our best just try to survive

And hey, it's alright

We'll remember these days were the best of our lives

We spend our time gettin' wasted

Holding on to an impossible dreams

But if they're all that we have

Then they're all we'll ever need

It's a stab in the dark to find something real anymore

We've been called out, we've been let down too many times before

And the headlines are looking pretty bleak

So we drink our way through the week

'Cause those good old days just ain't good enough anymore

It all started back then

When she first came around

She said "I feel so sorry for you fuck ups

But I love what you're putting down"

She said "You'll never guess where I've been

So don't even try"

You can think whatever you want

But some things just can't be denied

And this is just maybe one of those times

And hey, it's alright

We're all doing our best just try to survive

And hey, it's alright

We've been working on this moment for all our lives

We spend our time gettin' wasted

Holding on to an impossible dreams

But if they're all that we have

Then they're all we'll ever need

But if they're all that we have

Then they're all we'll ever need
