We Used to Know Lyrics

Whenever I get to feel this way Hard 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 and getting old We ran the race and the race was won By running slowly
Could be soon when I cease to sound Slowly upstairs, faster down Ah, then to revisit stony grounds We used to know
Remembering mornings, shillings spared It made no sense to leave the bed Oh, the bad old days, they came and went Ha, giving way to fruitful years
