Well I dont like taking pictures cause I dont like to admit That someday Ill be older And therell be times that I forget So I dont keep a scrapbook cause I dont need that weight Well the memories are like ghosts And they haunt me when its late Give me back those simple days Back when we used to dream And I dream for more than I have I want more than I got But I believe in the simple things Yeah the things that I forgot But I got a couple pictures Because sometimes I like to see How I looked when I was younger cause I didnt look that way to me And my daddy he kept a scrapbook
And Id leaf through once in a while Those old black and white pictures Of wedding cakes and sisters Yeah, they make me smile Give me back those simple days Back when we used to dream And I dream for more than I have I want more than I got And I believe in the simple things Yeah the things that I forgot, yeah Give me back those simple days Back when we used to dream And I dream for more than I have I want more than I got And I believe in the simple things Yeah the things that I forgot Well the things that I forgot Give me back the simple things that I forgot
