Good Times
Swimming with Dolphins Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And that's all that I can ask for tonight
Take a dive
We're never gonna know unless we try
All the stars are brighter suddenly
And they're floating in a sea of possibility
So tell me where you wanna go, what you wanna see
I'm with you and that's where I wanna be
The good times don't have to end
We can hit the rewind and do it all over again
The good times don't have to end
We can hit the rewind and do it all over again
Well, go ahead and hit that rewind button
Then I'm gonna call a couple friends SWD and hippy hop
What a blend gonna be an all-nighter if I attend
Or I keep it real chill make you feel like you're swimming with dolphin
Do it again, take a mulligan, like we're golfing
I keep it so right on, so radical, far out, and crazy they all want to do it again
The stars are brighter suddenly
And they're floating in a sea of possibility
So tell me where you wanna go, what you wanna see
I'm with you and that's where I wanna be
The good times don't have to end
We can hit the rewind and do it all over again
The good times don't have to end
We can hit the rewind and do it all over again
The good times don't have to end
We can hit the rewind and do it all over again
The good times don't have to end
We can hit the rewind and do it all over again
The good times don't have to end
We can hit the rewind and do it all over again
The good times don't have to end
We can hit the rewind and do it all over again
Again, again, again, again
Lets do it all over again
Again, again, again, again
Lets do it all over again
