Days We Left Behind

Looking back at white and black

Reminders of my past

Smoky bars and cheap guitars

But nothing built to last

Nothing ever stays

Nothing comes to mind

No one can erase

The days we left behind

See the boys of Dungeon Lane

Along the Mersey shore

Some of them will feel the pain

But some were meant for more

And nothing stays the same

No one needs to cry

Nothing can reclaim

The days we left behind

We met at Forthlin Road

And wrote a secret code

To never be spoken

I stand by what I said

The promise that I made

Will never be broken

Nothing ever stays

Nothing comes to mind

And no one can erase

The days we left behind

In the skies the skylarks rise

Above the sounds of war

Since that day I knew they’d stay

With me for evermore

’Cause nothing stays the same

And no one needs to cry

And no one is to blame

For the days we left behind

The days we left behind
