back in the day...  oh, it wasn't that far.  not a day goes by that won't be in the back tomorrow.  take today as a sample to you.  it looks cloudy outside,  what are you gonna do  well, we could get up  or we could get on down  we could drive to the country or head downtown,  maybe i'll join you too  we could have been so much better off than before  if we held on true    take today, and go walk for a while  well just sit back jack and relax and enjoy a smile  well let your mind go...  for a minute or two,  let your mind levitate for a delicate few.    we could have been so much better off than before  if we held on true    i said but lately i've been feeling mighty old  i said the sun has got me cracked and this wind has got me cold  and i'm so damn tired of losing my friends  every single time i go and lose my ends  i say but that's okay, i'm on my way  and in awhile when i realize there's something new  but until then i got to hold on true...
