I remember the way when we used to play
All our troubles seemed so far away, yeah
That was when I lived from day to day
Do you remember the times
When all on our minds
Was having fun
And catching a buzz
That was life for you and for me

[Chorus: ]
Whoah, oh, oh I want it back
Whoah oh oh I want it back, now
I've got my life to live

Looking back now at all of my friends
And asking myself why these times had to end
Well, I'm older now than I was then
And it makes no sense to try and deny it
There's no use to try and defy it
That's the way life goes for you and for me

[Chorus: ]

Hey
Whoah, oh, oh I want it back
Whoah, oh, oh I want it back, now
I've got my life to live
Right now, right now, right now
