Echoes of Yesterday

The neon lights were brighter then
We walked the streets as younger men
The radio played a steady beat
Of summer nights and concrete heat
We didn’t know how fast they’d fly

These golden days beneath the sky

Oh, I miss the good old days
Lost inside a velvet haze
When time was just a gentle friend
And we never thought the road would end
Just echoes now, a distant sound
Of all the love that we once found

The polaroid is fading gray
But captures colors anyway
The laughter trapped in frames of gold
Before the stories all grew old
We chased the wind with open hearts

Before we drifted far apart

It’s funny how the silence grows
Where once the rhythm overflowed
I’m reaching back to touch the ghost
Of what I think I miss the most

The simple truth, the way it felt
Before the winter ice could melt

Oh, I miss the good old days
Lost inside a velvet haze
When time was just a gentle friend
And we never thought the road would end
Just echoes now, a distant sound
Of all the love that we once found

The shadows lengthen on the wall
I hear the past begin to call
Just a memory, soft and deep
Safe inside the promises we keep
The good old days...
Are just a breath away.
