Lyrics To the Good Old Days - Dennis De Young, Julian Lennon

To the Good Old Days

It’s so hard to say goodbye
So I promise not to cry
But any tears that might be shed
Are only tears of joy
And I thank my lucky stars
That we’ve come so very far
Rising up against the odds
To where we are today
And though there may be sadness
Let’s all raise a glass
Cheers to us
And all that’s passed
To the good old days
When the world was new
When we still believed
Dreams could come true
To the good old days
And to all our friends
May the memories last
May they never end
So we’ll go our several ways
Wishing somehow we could stay
Safe again, so safe again
In all our innocence
When we all would sing along
As they played our favorite song
Dreaming of tomorrows
That seemed so limitless
So as we come together
Let’s make this moment last
Here’s to us (yeah, here’s to us)
And to the past
To the good old days
To the sweetest years
To the ones we loved
Through the laughs and tears
To the times ahead
May we all forgive
To the good old days
Long may they live
Funny how the years have slipped away
Always there beyond our grasp
Funny how it all seems looking back
Oh, whoa
To the good old days
When we all were young
To the love we shared
May our songs be sung
To the times ahead
May we all forgive
To the good old days
May they always live
