old days

Ingrid Michaelson

We took the wrong way down
You see just one side now
Guess that's what life's about
What you remember, what we remember
There's only one thing left
It's what we tell ourselves
The little lies they held
Us to remember, what we remember

Heaven help the ones who fly away
Heaven help the ones who have to stay
And place the blame
Maybe what you think of me won't change
But I still hold on, hold on
Hold onto the old days
The old days

Pack up the life that's left
Except that one blue dress
I always tried my best
Do you remember?
I'll take it year by year
Watching the dust go clear
We're all afraid to fear
Or to remember, how we remember

Heaven help the ones who fly away
Heaven help the ones who have to stay
And place the blame
Maybe what you think of me won't change
But I still hold on, hold on
Hold onto the old days

Sorry, that I never knew

Heaven help the ones who fly away
Heaven help the ones who have to stay
And place the blame
Maybe what you think of me won't change
But I still hold on, hold on
Hold on, I hold on
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, I hold on
Hold on, hold on
I hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
Hold onto the old days
