These Are the Good Ole Days - James Otto

I’m wastin' half of my life just lookin' back

Thinkin' all of my good times were in the past

Ain’t no joy to be found livin' life like that

I couldn’t feel the sunshine on my face

Everywhere that I’d go, I’d feel out of place

I finally figured out, I’d never win that race

Now I’m amazed to find

These are the good ole days that we’ve been livin'

No more lookin' back, all is forgiven

Ain’t gonna live my life through no picture frame

These are the good ole days

Seems like people get lost talkin' 'bout some day

Something better will come and take them away

Never realize 'til it’s too late

It’s the simple things that make life worthwhile

Like a warm summer day or a laughin' child

Or how it makes me feel just to see you smile

Baby you know it’s true

These are the good ole days that we’ve been livin'

No more lookin' back all is forgiven

Ain’t gonna live my life through no picture frame

These are the good ole days

These are the good ole days that we been livin'

No more lookin' back all is forgiven

Ain’t gonna live my life through no picture frame, yeah

These are the good ole days that we been livin

No more lookin' back all is forgiven

Ain’t gonna live my life through no picture frame

These are the good ole days

These are the good ole days
