[Verse 1]
I just miss the old days so much more
Going to the record store
CD on blast through the radio
Time wasn't so high speed, fast train
Find myself passin' through all of the stations
I'm missing the simple things I love
Back in the old days, oh I

[Pre-Chorus]
Skippin' the beat
Takin' the time

[Chorus]
I need the rendezvous from the merry-go-round
Somewhere cool when nobody's around
Somewhere blue where the water don't drown me, oh I'm
Missin' the old days

Now I need patience, this life gets too wild
That virtue's been out of style
Somewhere new to get lost and be found, oh I'm
Missin' the old days

[Verse 2]
Feels like a two year heatwave, I need a cold break
Ice tea, I need some milk, shake it up
In my white T's, North Face, south paw, loose grip
Might need to fix that, pray I don't trip
Now the drink in my cup is spilling, runnin' a rat race, so fast paced
[Pre-Chorus]
Skippin' the beat
Takin' the time

[Chorus]
I need the rendezvous from the merry-go-round
Somewhere cool when nobody's around
Somewhere blue where the water don't drown me, oh I'm
Missin' the old days

Now I need patience, this life gets too wild
That virtue's been out of style
Somewhere new to get lost and be found, oh I'm
Missin' the old days

[Outro]
I just miss the old days
Takin' the time
The simple things I loved
Back in the old days, oh I'm
Takin' the time
The simple things I loved
Missing the old days
