The Wonder Years

Before the war, before the lies
Before my brother left that night, yeah
I was just a kid, I was singing
La la la la la la la la la
The shit was simple just like
La la la la la la la la

Before I grasped that people die
Before I saw my sister cry, yeah
I was just a kid, I was singing
La la la la la la la la la
The shit was simple just like
La la la la la la la la

So take me back to the days
When I was younger
All this bullshit is overrated
Back to the days
Pour some shots out with my people
And we gon sing like
La la la la la la la la
At our local bar like
La la la la la la la la

Before the world turned grey and old
Before we both fell out of love, yeah
We were just kids, we were singing
La la la la la la la la
Love was simple just like
La la la la la la la la

Before they put our dreams in jail
Before we lost our fairy tales, oh
We were just kids, we were singing
La la la la la la la la
Love was simple just like
La la la la la la la la

So take me back to the days
When I was younger
All this bullshit is overrated
Back to the days
Pour some shots out with my people
And we gon' sing like
La la la la la la la la
At our local bar like
La la la la la la la la

They say my dream is unreal
I'm forgetting how the sun feels
I'm forgetting how love heals
And my niece is blowing bubbles in the yard
Economy is down too
They're lying on the damn nose
People murdering for damn shoes
And my niece is blowing bubbles in the yard
(Think about it)
My niece is blowing bubbles in the yard
My niece is blowing bubbles in the yard
(Think about it)
My niece is blowing bubbles in the yard

So take me back to the days
When I was younger
All this bullshit is overrated
Back to the days
Pour some shots out with my people
And we gon' sing like
La la la la la la la la
At our local bar like
La la la la la la la la
