lyrics

Feel the lights hit my eyes and think I'll never change at all
How could I be so wrong?
Oh the drinks and the parties we used to throw
My god, we were so young
But it's grown clear to me

Opening my closet doors just got me really thinking
Has it really been that long?
Since the day we waited years to finally come around, well
I remember every song, the long drive, through the night,
away from home

Well none of these shirts fit, I've lost track of friends
But I'd never trade these memories for the money I once spent
We were young and we were bold
Now we're broke and growing old
If I had the chance, I wouldn't change the past
I love these punk rock songs

And I still love to sing along to "Let's Go!" and "No Control"

Now we think we've figured it out, what life is all about
With business plans and mortgages and savings for our kids
Sure I miss those reckless days, they live in photos in the frame
But looking back, I'm happy now, for the first time I can say

And I still love to sing along and wear shirts that are too small
And even though I've heard it all
Well I still love to sing along...
