ELEVENTYSEVEN - Back When We Were Kids lyrics

rate me

Remember back before all the drama

Remember back before all of the bills and the degrees

Every hill that we stood on felt like a mountain

And every lake that we swam in felt just like a raging sea

Shooting stars were still good for wishing on

And old appliance boxes took us straight up to the moon

And every single day was a Saturday

And every night like clock work bedtime always came too soon

And we knew...

If we had problems band-aids fixed it

Mom was always there to listen

And every night we'd say our prayers to someone watching us up there, oh

Life was so much simpler way back then

Back when we were kids

We all had our own sense of fashion

And we didn't care who'd written or directed our cartoons

There was still some magic in a sunrise

And we could visit dinosaurs and make it back by noon

And we knew...

If we had problems band-aids fixed it

Mom was always there to listen

And every night we'd say our prayers to someone watching us up there, oh

Life was so much simpler way back then

Back when we were kids
