I Miss When

(album: Life As We Know It - 2013)

I can still hear my boombox boomin shakin my bedroom walls
Turn it down boy that hair metal noise don't sound like music at all
I can still see that next door neighbor girl face down in the sun
On her trampoline with that little string of her bikini top undone

[Chorus:]
I miss when time moved slower and too loud sounded good
And work meant pushing a mower all over my neighborhood
I miss when a's and b's were all I had to worry about
And love was seven minutes in heaven and spinning a bottle around

I can still smell mama's fried chicken in the kitchen right after church
Every sunday'd be a pickup game
In the yard til somebody got hurt
I can still feel my knees buckle
With the taste of that first kiss
Bubblegum mixed with cherry chapstick and I couldn't wait to do it again

[Chorus:]
I miss when time moved slower and too loud sounded good
And work meant pushing a mower all over my neighborhood
I miss when a's and b's were all I had to worry about
And love was seven minutes in heaven and spinning a bottle around

I miss when time moved slower and too loud sounded good
And work meant pushing a mower all over my neighborhood
I miss when a's and b's were all I had to worry about
And love was seven minutes in heaven and spinning a bottle around
Yeah love was seven minutes in heaven
And spinning a bottle around
Yeah I miss when
