I've got bruises,
But they're healing
With every smile sent my way.
The babies are growing up so fast,
Remember when we were the young reckless ones?
Taking on the word together.
Young, wild, and free.
Now we're old, tamed,and chained
Just waiting for our saving grace,
And our happiness lies with those little smiles.
Funny, how the little things
Small moments move us
The can build us up,
Or knock us down.
The rock and roll songs
I used to sing along with,
Don't have the feeling they used to.
The words stay the same,
But the feelings have fleeted.
Memories are fading,
As we're making new ones.
I don't get how some people seem to miss the little ones,
They have their excuses.
Trying to chase their dreams,
Missing the past,
And the worste of all is dimissing it as just stupid meaningless waste of time.
How can you be happy?
If you miss the little happy moments,
If you leave to the ones you know.
If you chase your dreams too far,
You stray from home,
And sometimes you can never find it again.
