Memories Songtext
von Neffex

Yeah, it′s that first day of first grade
That cute girl, your third date
That backpack, that snapback
You've had since the third grade
The first time you got laid
The worst time you got played
It hurt, but you′re okay
You learned from your mistakes

Your friends back in high school
We thought we were so cool
We'd steal Jack, my dad's stash
And drink the whole night through
The first time you first moved
Dad′s new job, a new roof
New student, made new friends
A new start, a new you


I guess things could be worse
Dad′s in sales and my mom is a nurse, yeah
Family comes first, remember all the good
And forget about the worst, yeah
Some things will burn and others will hurt
But you can make it work, yeah
Just flashback and be glad that you can look back
At a good past happy that you have that

I like living in the past, it makes me thankful
For everything I have, yeah
Every time that I laughed, it makes me grateful
For the present and the past, yeah
Don't live life too fast, take it all slowly
And you can make it last, yeah
Keep all the friends that you had back in your math class
You′ll be glad that you have 'em when you look back

Yeah, yeah
It′s that time that you got caught
You snuck out and forgot
Your parents were so mad
But man, she was so hot
That time you got too drunk
The first time you blew chunks
It's okay, we all drank too much when we′re too young


The first time you held hands
Your first time in romance
You thought you had no chance
But still asked her to dance
The time that you moved out
Your parents were so proud
And waving goodbye
They held back their tears somehow

Let's go
All lives aren't the same
But we can work together, and we can make a change, yeah
This life is strange
Remember all the good while forgetting all the pain, yeah
Think back to a day when you were so free
Just to run around to play, yeah
You can have that day, just let go
Let your mind run away, yeah

And learn to be young
Have a little fun with your friends in the sun
′Cause in life you only got one
Give yourself a break, quit livin′ on the run
And be where your feet are
Layin' down at night just to stare up at the stars, yeah
And be proud of who you are
Wear your memories on your sleeve like a scar
