These Days
Phantom/Ghost Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dance how I feel when I choose to dance
Keep an eye out for love and romance
Lend a hand while I still have the chance
Maybe buy a villa in the south of France
When I need it fixed I'll call my boy Vance
Get myself a garden and plant some plants
And while I'm diggin might find some ants
Thank you for the good times
These are the good old days
Thank you for the good times
These are the good old days
Life is short so Imma put on my pants
Dance how I feel when I choose to dance
Keep an eye out for love and romance
Lend a hand while I still have the chance
Maybe buy a villa in the south of France
When I need it fixed I'll call my boy Vance
Get myself a garden and plant some plants
And while I'm diggin might find some ants
Thank you for the good times
These are the good old days
Thank you for the good times
These are the good old days
