Funny how things just tasted better
When we were young
When we were young
Funny how things just seemed so easy
When we were young
It's been a long day
It's been a long day
It's been a long day
It's been a long day
I wanna get out
I wanna go home
Is anything better
Than you on the phone
I wanna get out
I wanna go home
Is anything better
Than you on the phone
I think that we weren't always grateful
For what you've done
When we were young
I think that we weren't always grateful
For what you´ve done
We've come a long way
We've come a long way
We've come a long way
We've come a long way
I wanna get out
I wanna go home
Is anything better
Than you on the phone
You on the phone
You on the phone...
