|
A time of innocence and love |
|
Could we go back to how it was |
|
I remember when life was so simple |
|
You did or you didn't |
|
You would or you wouldn't |
|
But it ain't like that anymore |
|
I remember when life was so easy |
|
People said what they meant |
|
They were either for it or against |
|
But it ain't like that anymore |
|
Somewhere we lost the score |
|
Bring back the days of yea and nay |
|
When we could plainly see the way |
|
Then it was up to us to choose |
|
Whether to win or to lose |
|
Bring back the times when we could see |
|
What it was we were to be |
|
Caught in the midst of complexity |
|
We search for yea and nay |
|
I remember when life was so simple |
|
Parents were a light |
|
Through them we saw what was right |
|
But it ain't like that anymore |
|
I remember when life was so easy |
|
Boys grew into men, little girls to women then |
|
But it ain't like that anymore |
|
Somewhere we lost the score |
|
Bring back the days of yea and nay |
|
When we could plainly see the way |
|
Then it was up to us to choose |
|
Whether to win or to lose |
|
Bring back the times when we could see |
|
What it was we were to be |
|
Caught in the midst of complexity |
|
We search for yea and nay |
|
We knew where we belonged |
|
What was right and what was wrong |
|
Bring back the days of yea and nay |
|
When we could plainly see the way |
|
Then it was up to us to choose |
|
Whether to win or to lose |
|
Bring back the times when we could see |
|
What it was we were to be |
|
Caught in the midst of complexity |
|
We search for yea and nay |
|
Need a simple yes or no |
|
Should I stay or should |
|
I goLife has become so advanced |
|
Wish I had a second chance |
|
To go back if |
|
I couldSee what was bad and what was good |
|
Now I'm here and what |
|
I fearIs we won't find yea or nay |
