Like They Used To

A memory, a little frame
Is bringing back the late-night sneak-out dancing
A Polaroid is all it takes, yeah, yeah

From getting lost to getting back
And meeting up with everyone at the corner lot
Waking up a little late, yeah, yeah

There were boat days in the summer
And snow fights in the cold
It's a shame, oh, what a bummer
We're getting old

I never thought of the days, but they flew by fast
We were riding a wave, hoping that it don't crash
On the highway, backseat with the whole squad
Going 85 on the 95

We were drinkin' a lot, never drank too much
Just a couple of beers for a couple of bucks
We learned the hard way those days
But it's way better than our nine-to-five
They don't make 'em like they used to

Lie awake, but half asleep
Counting tiles on the ceilin'
I'm making plans and finally
Chasing what I'm feelin'

From the boat days in the summer (yeah)
And snow fights in the cold (in the cold)
Talking 'bout our futures with each other
But now we're getting old (getting old)

I never thought of the days, but they flew by fast
We were riding a wave, hoping that it don't crash
On the highway, backseat with the whole squad
Going 85 on the 95

We were drinkin' a lot, never drank too much
Just a couple of beers for a couple of bucks
We learned the hard way those days
But it's way better than our nine-to-five
They don't make 'em like they used to

No, it don't feel like it used to
Everything's changed, damn, who knew?
Same old walls, but a new room
Feels too soon, yeah
Somehow lost some contacts
Call some, they don't call back
That's just a matter of fact
And when I look in the past, I think about

I never thought of the days, but they flew by fast
We were riding a wave, hoping that it don't crash
On the highway, backseat with the whole squad
Going 85 on the 95

We were drinkin' a lot, never drank too much
Just a couple of beers for a couple of bucks
We learned the hard way those days
But it's way better than our nine-to-five (nine-to-five)
They don't make 'em like they used to

(Oh, oh) they don't make 'em like they used to
(No, oh, no, oh) they don't make 'em like they used to
They don't make 'em like they used to (used to)
Oh, oh
