when life was good

love is easier when we are young

it's easier letting it go

it's easier hurting than being alone

if only i could've believed that time wouldn't take you from me

then i would have never let you leave

and now it's haunting me

i remember staying up late 'til our parents went to sleep

sneaking out the back door

meeting by the trees

taking our clothes off

jumping in the creek

that's when life was good

i remember holding up the phone line talking 'bout nothing

drifting off to dream

waking up knowing we were young and still in love

and that's when life was good

i'm realizing over the years that catching and counting my tears

and if i'm patient they will disappear

i'm ready to try it again

the fire of when it begins

the fight for a feeling that never ends

it goes on and on again

i remember staying up late 'til our parents went to sleep

sneaking out the back door

meeting by the trees

taking our clothes off

jumping in the creek

that's when life was good

i remember holding up the phone line talking 'bout nothing

drifting off to dream

waking up knowing we were young and still in love

and that's when life was good

that's when life was good

that's when life was good

i remember

i remember

i remember

yeah

i remember staying up late 'til our parents went to sleep

sneaking out the back door

meeting by the trees

taking our clothes off

jumping in the creek

that's when life was good

i remember holding up the phone line talking 'bout nothing

drifting off to dream

waking up knowing we were young and still in love

and that's when life was good

that's when life was good

that's when life was good

i remember

i remember

i remember

love is easier when we are young

it's easier letting it go

it's easier hurting than being alone
