| Back in the day, like my grandma used to say | |
| She was a single mom, raising my mom | |
| With the money she made | |
| Working in a beauty salon | |
| Her husband was gone, and her plans got changed | |
| Still she did the best she could | |
| Back in the day | |
| Cause it's her eyes, and she gets so far away | |
| She's talking at the floor | |
| Your grand-daddy bought me that piano | |
| After he came home from the war | |
| You know the world keeps getting stranger | |
| But I still feel the same | |
| I love you now like I loved you then | |
| Back in the day | |
| I had a pair of kangaroos | |
| Not the animals, but the tennis shoes | |
| Kept my lunch money in a pocket on the side | |
| I was convinced that the shoes made me jump high | |
| I guess it was because of the name | |
| Still I loved the idea just the same | |
| Cause it's her eyes, and she gets so far away | |
| Feels more like a dream | |
| That's your daddy with a moustache | |
| That's your mommy being free | |
| You know the world keeps getting stranger | |
| But I still feel the same | |
| I love you now like I loved you then | |
| Afgahn rugs and tapestries | |
| Made from memories and dreams | |
| Growing old or growing young | |
| I'll hold you in my heart | |
| (???) | |
| Cause it's her eyes, and she gets so far away | |
| She's talking at the floor | |
| Your grand-daddy bought me that piano | |
| After he came home from the war | |
| You know the world keeps getting stranger | |
| But I still feel the same | |
| I love you now like I loved you then | |
| You know I need you now like I needed you then | |
| You know I love you now like I loved you then | |
| Like I loved you | |
| Back in the day |
