Another nostalgic song and in a similar vein to Nights Like These.
The title of this single even appears in the chorus of Nights Like These
So take me to the glory days
And let’s hold on tight to nights like these
[Verse 1]
I've been
Thinking
A lot about the seventh grade
We were blasting Dr. Dre
Reminiscing
No responsibilities
Tearing up our skinny jeans
[Pre-Chorus]
We thought we were the coolest shit ever
Did some stupid shit together
Nights we got wasted
Jump in the lake, man
It’s been forever
[Chorus]
After all this time
Now and then you cross my mind
I tried calling, damn, I guess your number changed
Memories I have
Part of me wants to go back
But some things are just too good to recreate
Those were the glory days
[Verse 2]
I check
My phone
Just to see what you're up to
Found a photo of us two
We looked
So dumb
Barely growing facial hair
Flexing muscles that weren't there
[Pre-Chorus]
We thought we were the coolest shit ever
Did some stupid shit together
Go to Seven-Eleven
Higher than heaven
It’s been forever
[Chorus]
After all this time
Now and then you cross my mind
I tried calling, damn, I guess your number changed
Memories I have
Part of me wants to go back
But some things are just too good to recreate
Those were the glory days
[Bridge]
Take me back, take me back, take me back, take me back, take me back
Take me back to before we changed
Take me back, take me back, take me back
Take me back to the glory days
Take me back, take me back, take me back, take me back, take me back
Take me back to before we changed
Take me back, take me back now
Take me back to the glory days
[Chorus]
After all this time
Now and then you cross my mind
I tried calling, damn, I guess your number changed
Memories I have
Part of me wants to go back
But some things are just too good to recreate
Those were the glory days
