Achey bones and achey minds
Reminding us of better times and days we felt just so alive and free
Oh, didn't we?
It felt so right to be up there in spotlights holding all our dreams.
We danced until our feet were raw
We sang until our voices were no more
And told jokes till they were old and grey
Just like cloudy days
Waiting for something new to come along
Like rain or snow or storms or sun
oooooooh oooooooh oooooooh
Even though it's been awhile
These memories still linger in my bones
And hide behind my smile
Because the people we once were and things that we once did
Are tattooed for eternity far beneath our skin
Achey bones and achey minds
Reminding us of better times
Oh and even in the morning when we wake to seize the day
We're still longing for the past, yearning for those long lost halcyon days
Even when we're tired and even when we're old
We'll still be aching in our minds
And aching in our bones
Oooooh oOooooOOOOH Ohhhhhh etc etc (yeah i like oooooohs)
Achey bones and achey minds
Reminding us of better times
Oh and even in the morning when we wake to seize the day
We're still longing for the past, yearning for those long lost halcyon days
Even when we're tired and even when we're old
We'll still be aching in our minds
And aching in our bones
