Verse 1
Flipping through old photographs
Bent corners, but the memories last
Dirt bikes kicking up summer dust
Thought time was ours, thought we could trust

Pre-Chorus
We were laughing like it’d never end
Didn’t know how rare that was back then

Chorus
In the younger days
When the nights were long and the weight of the world was gone
We didn’t know how good we had it
Living fast, living in the moment of time
Life pulled us all different ways
No bad blood, just change and space
I love the life I’ve made
But I still miss the younger days

Verse 2
Public pool in the summer heat
Hot pavement burning up our feet
Cold Dr. Pepper, passing it around
She leaned in first when no one was around

Pre-Chorus 2
Back when summer felt like it would never end
Every laugh was louder back then

Chorus
In the younger days
When tomorrow felt so far away
We didn’t know how good we had it
Just trying to live another day
Life pulled us all different ways
No blame to throw, no debts to pay
I love the life I’ve made
But I still miss the younger days

Bridge
Some friends faded, some stayed close
That’s just how time goes, I suppose
Those days built the man I am
Every road led right here where I stand

Final Chorus
Yeah, the younger days
When time slipped right through our hands
We didn’t know how good we had it
Just kids trying to understand
Life pulled us all different ways
And I’m thankful for every change
I love the life I’ve made
But I still miss the younger days

Outro
Yeah, I still miss the younger days
