Well I dont like taking pictures
cause I dont like to admit
That someday Ill be older
And therell be times that I forgetSo I dont keep a scrapbook
cause I dont need that weight
Well the memories are like ghosts
And they haunt me when its lateGive me back those simple days
Back when we used to dreamAnd I dream for more than I have
I want more than I got
But I believe in the simple things
Yeah the things that I forgotBut I got a couple pictures
Because sometimes I like to see
How I looked when I was younger
cause I didnt look that way to meAnd my daddy he kept a scrapbook
And Id leaf through once in a while
Those old black and white pictures
Of wedding cakes and sisters
Yeah, they make me smileGive me back those simple days
Back when we used to dreamAnd I dream for more than I have
I want more than I got
And I believe in the simple things
Yeah the things that I forgot, yeahGive me back those simple days
Back when we used to dreamAnd I dream for more than I have
I want more than I got
And I believe in the simple things
Yeah the things that I forgotWell the things that I forgot
Give me back the simple things that I forgot
