These are the days of our lives
But I'm just drinking not to cry
While you're out playing
I'm just hanging out inside
Watching the street creeps roll on by
Complete opposites on the zodiac chart
It makes no sense to me
I guess it sums it up
As to why we are apart
It wasn't mean to be
We had our share of ups and downs
But the downs kept us spinnin'
Round and round and round
These are the days of our lives
But I'm just drinking not to cry
While you're out playing
I'm just hanging out inside
Watching the street creeps roll on by
Now you're all out there on your own
And I'm just a kid in comparison
To how much you've probably grown
I'm a mess
So much like my place
But I'm alright
Despite the wrinkles on my face
(Change)
I suppose you're happy now
With your big house, two dogs, and Dr. Gray
And I'm so happy for you that I can't
Find the words to say
And yes I'm on the grind
But when I find the time
I too might get to play
But in the meantime
I'm still waiting for my
Brown-eyed fancy to come my way
If you were to ask me now how I'm doing
I might confess that I'm still low
And I feel ruined
But I just might confess that I've seen better days
These are the days of our lives
But I'm just drinking
While I'm thinking not to cry
While you're out playing
I'm just hanging out inside
Watching the street creeps roll on by
