Remenisce
Brewer And Chase Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Building a sand castle and watching the tide roll in
I can't remember a day when you weren't my best friend
We'd go for miles but we never seemed to care
We lived our lives with no worry or despair

Well take me back,
Take me back,
Take me back to those days

Sleeping in the morning cuz we stayed up til 3 last night
You made me jump the bridge cuz you know I'm afraid of heights
Taking a midnight swim and sneaking out of the house
All day barbeques with a grass stain on your blouse

Well take me back,
Take me back,
Take me back to those days when everything was ok

Take me back,
Take me back, please,
Take me back to those days when everything was ok

Counting all the stars up in a big black sky
With your head on my chest you let out a wishful sigh
Longing for those days that came and passed us by
At least we have these memories, those will never die

Come reminisce with me
Remember when and follow me to
Good times and memories
Snap back from reality

I wanna know I wanna say I wanna go I wanna stay I wanna show everyone their way back home

Fitting 9 people in a 5 person car
We told the officer we weren't gonna go too far
I wanna stay in these summer days under the sun
Live my life my own way where tomorrow never comes

Take me back
Won't you take me back,
Take me back to those days when everything was ok
Take me back
Won't you take me back,
Take me back to those days when everything was ok

Take me back




Take me back,
Take me back to those days when everything was ok
