Lyrics:
Whenever I get to feel this way,Try to find new words to say,I think about the bad old days.We used to know.Nights of winter turn me cold;Fears of dying, getting old.We ran the race, the race was wonBy running slowly.Could be soon we'll cease to soundSlowly upstairs, faster down,Then to revisit stony ground.We used to know.Remembering mornings, shillings spent.Made no sense to leave the bed.The bad old days, they came and went,Giving way to fruitful years.Saving up the birds in hand.While in the bush the others land.Take what we can before the manSays it's time to go.Each to his own way; I'll go mine.Best of luck in what you find.But for your own sake remember timesWe used to know
