well I suppose we could talk all day,
about being young and going out to play.
putting baseball cards in your bicycle spokes,
sitting on the curb and drinking frozen cokes.
oh, thinking GI Joes and matchbox cars,
setting corn husk fires and bugs in jars,
or getting dirty hands and skinning your knees,
getting poison ivy or climbing trees.
but in 1995, my good friend died,
I couldn't understand why she took her life.
I sat in my room, and I listened to tapes.
I lost my baby fat, but gained a heavy weight. alright.
well I suppose we could talk all day,
about how I feel and how I lost my way.
oh but everybody knows,
that's the way it goes,
you plant another seed and then you watch it grow.
oh, but 1998 was a magical year, I dropped outta college,
and I started drinking beer. I lost more weight and I lost my girl,
but finally figured out where I belong in this world.
oh, I don't rely on memories of being young...
no I don't always go chasing the setting sun...
I still smoke and I still drink,
but I finally figured out where I belong.
