Matt & Toby - Life Of The Party lyrics

I picked up an old acoustic Thought my hands knew how to use it But these days aren't like the old ones Or the songs we sang on the long way home I sat back down beside that girl who was texting And laughed out loud over obsessions with next things And how every good song has the words Tonight, take back and burn By your side, miss the way, and I will never learn So if there's nothing new to say Then let's just say it all again tonight We had the best times of our lives Let's do it all again, take back my place There by your side and never let it end The hours pa**ed like days The nights were our escape We held onto our friends And made a couple million mistakes We were so reckless and young Go get your CD case, let's drive around this town And sing Dashboard at the top of our lungs I still remember my parents divorcing It took ten long years of the back and forth thing Finally I saw it in my mother's eyes A road you can choose that you can't come back from And the words you can say to add some traction But it's what you didn't say that keeps you awake We tell ourselves it's late and save it all for another day We had the best times of our lives Let's do it all again, take back my place There by your side and never let it end The hours pa**ed like days The nights were our escape We held onto our friends And made a couple million mistakes We were so reckless and young Go get your CD case, let's drive around this town And sing Dashboard at the top of our lungs I want to go back, I want to go back tonight Could it be that we're one and the same? (I want to be real) The world never showed but it gave us a name (To feel brand new) That hole in your heart is the same shape as mine (To talk like friends) The piece has gone missing that filled up our lives (And laugh with you) I'll stand here and I'll take the worst But the song was my own and I sang every verse I'm giving myself up, there's no where to run If just for one night, forget all our pride and have fun I want to go back to the life of the party
