not yet

The streetlights glow not like they used to do
I walk these blocks where we once ran through
But the faces underneath have all changed
Everything feels different Not like back in our days

Long summer nights on my parents porch
Drinkin and clownin, passing the torch
Oh how I miss all of those unforgettable days
All of those mushrooms getting lost in the haze

Old number's still saved in my blackberry phone
Like Neeko's place where we'd all be known
Damn I miss that place I wonder who owns it now
So much consumption their but we survived somehow

I found some old from back in the day
We were young and wreckless with nothing to say
Look at this one of that girl from up the street
I hope she's doing well and she found her peace

For the nights we can't get back
And the friends we can't forget
For the love we thought would last
And the promises we kept
Oh, we were young and we were free
Now it's just a memory
For the nights we can't get back
And the friends we can't forget

The basement shows at my parents place
If I close my eyes I can see every face
So much fun cause we all sang off key
So many are strangers now to me

A few of us carved our names in that tree
When we all swore our lives to secrecy
Said we'd meet back there in 25 years
I went to visit, tree was gone, almost shed a tear

Some still talk about the parties we threw
And all of us who swore we'd stay true
We were the ones, that represented our block
So little left except that buried box

Spring Lake pool Jumping the fence after dark
Cops come calling we'd go and hide in the park
Those were good times under the stars at night
We all were a little buzzed but it all felt right

For the nights we can't get back
And the friends we can't forget
For the love we thought would last
And the promises we kept
Oh, we were young and we were free
Now it's just a memory
For the nights we can't get back
And the friends we can't forget
