The time and place where we come from
It’s lost it’s gone for all, never gonna happen again
I know that nothing ever lasts
It happens much too fast, it’s gone, we left it all in the past
Do you remember when we toured the land
The radio was blasting and
We sang along our favorite songs
Who knew those were gonna be
The best days of our lives
Memories make me cry
[with] teardrops in our eyes
[we] said all our goodbyes, but
Real bands are for life
All things come to an end
But we’ll always be friends,
I know we’ll play again, ‘cause
Real bands are for life
And now, we’re gettin’ on in the years
With all our hopes and fears
The words we left unsaid
We all gather and reminisce
The days we’ll always miss and how
We wish they never had to end
Do you remember when we didn’t know
Which way our lives we’re gonna go
The pain was more than we bargained for, whoa-oooh
Somehow we came along, we made it through
The pain is gone, the songs are too
The past, some words we thought we knew
Like these are gonna be
The best days of our lives
Who is to say things aren’t better this way
The clocks ticks on, but what have you done today?
Now who are you, and what are the debts that you pay
And we all move on
