A time of innocence and love Could we go back to how it was? I remember when life was so simple You did or you didn't You would or you wouldn't But it ain't like that anymore I remember when life was so easy People said what they meant They were either for it or against But it ain't like that anymore Somewhere we lost the score Bring back the days of yea and nay When we could plainly see the way Then it was up to us to choose Whether to win or to lose Bring back the times when we could see What it was we were to be Caught in the midst of complexity We search for yea and nay I remember when life was so simple Parents were a light Through them, we saw what was right But it ain't like that anymore I remember when life was so easy Boys grew into men, little girls to women then But it ain't like that anymore
Somewhere we lost the score Bring back the days of yea and nay When we could plainly see the way Then it was up to us to choose Whether to win or to lose Bring back the times when we could see What it was we were to be Caught in the midst of complexity We search for yea and nay We knew where we belonged What was right and what was wrong Bring back the days of yea and nay When we could plainly see the way Then it was up to us to choose Whether to win or to lose Bring back the times when we could see What it was we were to be Caught in the midst of complexity We search for yea and nay Need a simple yes or no Should I stay or should I go Life has become so advanced Wish I had a second chance To go back if I could See what was bad and what was good Now I'm here and what I fear Is, we won't find yea or nay
