• ...Appreciate the blessings life gives you now...


    Those were the days

    11 years old when I told you I fell for you
    12 years old when my love confirmed it was true
    Several years before I had a crush on you
    Glancing nervously at you, that just what I do

    18 tryin’a piece together my heart
    Cause when I was 14 is when you broke it apart
    4 years stuck between a rock and a hard place
    Steady tryin’a figure how to rid me of your face

    You were sweet as orange turned sour as a lemon
    You were my whole life, you were worth livin’
    For you baby girl my life was worth givin
    Until you said you don’t love me; that was hard hittin’

    But don’t worry about me, psh, who am I kiddin’?
    You never really care, don’t say you did cause you didn’t
    I tried to get you back but you was to far to get
    I finally realize your love was never legit


    Those were the days I can never forget
    Those were the days I can also regret
    Those were the days I can never forget
    Those were the days…


    I remember the time I stayed up all night
    Tryn’a figure out if you’re alright which led to a verbal fight
    You’re tryn’a to tell me to go bed
    I didn’t care about sleep I cared about you’re well being instead.

    Thinkin’ of what I said, What was goin’ through my head?
    As I helped you while fleeing from punishment I dread
    From my parents telling them I was doing my school
    Now that you left me I feel like such a fool

    I risked everything for you, givin’ you my whole heart
    Not knowin’ this was something we couldn’t finish but only start
    But now, I notice that I still feel alone
    People told me to forget and just move along

    People said and encouraged me to be strong
    Cause it wasn’t my fault, she was in the wrong
    Fallin’ in love with you baby now I regret
    But those are the days I can never forget

    Those were the days I can never forget
    Those were the days I can also regret
    Those were the days I can never forget
    Those were the days…

    Lying, trying, crying, and lonely
    I was missin’ you and you only
    Couldn’t get ya off my mind
    Even though you were colder than winter time

    You were like a brisk breeze that turned into a storm
    Picked me up, swept away without an alarm
    You stabbed me, why did ya have to cut me down?
    To make matters worst, you left my heart on the ground


    And then you walked away and without nothin’ to say
    Leaving me to die in the light of the day
    But that’s alright and that’s okay
    You don’t love me no more? Fine I’m going my way

    Don’t sit and explain, you have nothin’ to explain
    No words in this world could replace the pain
    Love is a gamble that I lost and regret
    But girl you’re cruel and it’s you I hope to forget


    Those were the days I can never forget
    Those were the days I can also regret
    Those were the days I can never forget
    Those were the days…

    ...for you never know how soon life will ask for them back...
