picking flowers

I can hear my parents calling
Picking flowers in the garden
Easy to amuse
Didn't keep up with the news
Oh yeah, that was back when rent was cheaper
Dirty T-shirts, beat-up sneakers
Everything was new
And not a thing we couldn't do

Here's to the dreams that we had
Back when we laughed and we didn't know that
There would be days that were bad
We felt the love that we loved, that we had
Not all the money we stashed
We wouldn't fight back the tears when we're sad
Gave everybody a chance
What happened to all the dreams that we had?

Never by myself
Couldn't reach me on my cell
Didn't have to work back then
Our parents were the ATM's
When it was easy to be grateful
Whatever we had, we were thankful
Didn't worry 'bout the bills (no, no)
Every now and again, I just think back to when

I can hear my parents calling
Picking flowers in the garden
Easy to amuse
Didn't keep up with the news
Oh yeah, that was back when rent was cheaper
Dirty t-Shirts, beat-up sneakers
Everything was new
And not a thing we couldn't do

Here's to the dreams that we had
Back when we laughed and we didn't know that
There would be days that were bad
We felt the love that we loved, that we had
Not all the money we stashed
We wouldn't fight back the tears when we're sad
Gave everybody a chance
What happened to all the dreams that we had?

Here's to the dreams that we had
Back when we laughed and we didn't know that
There would be days that were bad
We felt the love that we loved, that we had
Not all the money we stashed
We wouldn't fight back the tears when we're sad
Gave everybody a chance
What happened to all the dreams that we had?
