Do you remember walking downtown,
as we casually strolled and turned the world upside down?
Those were the days, they'll never take them away.

I'd say it to you with the words of my mouth,
but once that thing opens conversation goes south
so I'll keep biding my time, that seems to suit me just fine.

I'll find a photograph in time, and frame it on the wall.
Even if I know that we can't possibly get them all...

I'm okay with that, at least for a moment
I'm okay with that, at least for today
And I'll stay that way, and try to remember
in the end we'll still be okay
I'm alright with that, it's not such a problem
that I can't sit back and figure it out
I'll just take my time, and just work around it
'cause it's not worth fighting about.

demonstration of playing by ear
is apparent as ever every time that you're here,
so I'll keep things in key, the toughest thing I can be
silent city is ours for the day,
upside-down as it is, we'll make it ours anyway [bad word] on, take it with me, we'll make it work out, you'll see!
