These Days

[Verse 1]
Leaving to find my soul
Told her I had to go
And I know it ain't pretty
When our hearts get broke
Too young to feel this old
Watching us both turn cold
Oh, I know it ain't pretty
When two hearts get broke
Yeah, I know it ain't pretty
When two hearts get broke

[Chorus]
I hope someday we'll sit down together
And laugh with each other about these days, these days
All our troubles, we'll lay to rest and
We'll wish we could come back to these days, these days

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, I know, I know, I know
Oh, I know, I know
Oh, I know, I know, I know
These days, these days
Oh, I know, I know, I know
Oh, I know, I know
Oh, I know, I know, I know
These days, these days

[Verse 2]
Three years of ups and downs
Nothing to show for it now
And I know it ain't pretty when the fire burns out
Calling me when I'm lost, remind me of what I've done
And I know it ain't pretty when you're trying to move on, yeah

[Chorus]
I hope someday we'll sit down together
And laugh with each other 'bout these days, these days
All our troubles, we'll lay to rest and
We'll wish we could come back to these days, these days

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, I know, I know, I know
Oh, I know, I know
Oh, I know, I know, I know
These days, these days
Oh, I know, I know, I know
Oh, I know, I know
Oh, I know, I know, I know
To these days, these days, oh

[Verse 3]
I get lost in the memories
Reminiscing on those past days
I thought you’d end up with my last name
But that changed
And I traveled 'round the world
Think where you living at now?
I heard you moved to Austin
Got an apartment and settled down
And every once in a while, I start texting
Write a paragraph, but then I delete the message
Think about you like a past time
I could cry you a river, get you baptized or
I wasn't ready to act right
Used to always think I'd get you back, right
They say that things fall apart (Yeah)
We were gonna move to Brooklyn
You were gonna study art (Oh, yeah)
Love is just a tool
To remind us who we are
And that we are not alone (Ooh, ooh-ooh)
And we're walking in the dark (Ooh-ooh)

[Chorus]
I hope someday we'll sit down together
And laugh with each other 'bout these days, these days (Oh, I know, I know, I know)
All our troubles, we'll lay to rest and (Oh, I know, I know)
We'll wish we could come back to these days, these days (Oh, I know, I know, I know, yeah)

[Outro]
We'll wish we could come back to these days, these days (These days, these days, these days)
