| Lyrics: | Whenever I get to feel this way,
Try to find new words to say,
I think about the bad old
days.
We used to know.
Nights of winter turn me cold;
Fears of dying, getting
old.
We ran the race, the race was won
By running slowly.
Could be soon we'll
cease to sound
Slowly upstairs, faster down,
Then to revisit stony ground.
We used to
know.
Remembering mornings, shillings spent.
Made no sense to leave the
bed.
The bad old days, they came and went,
Giving way to fruitful years.
Saving
up the birds in hand.
While in the bush the others land.
Take what we can before the
man
Says it's time to go.
Each to his own way; I'll go mine.
Best of luck in
what you find.
But for your own sake remember times
We used to know |
