It's so hard to say goodbye So I promise not to cry But any tears that might be shed Are only tears of joy And I thank my lucky stars That we've come so very far Rising up against the odds To where we are today And though there may be sadness Let's all raise a glass Cheers to us and all that's passed To the good old days When the world was new When we still believed Dreams could come true To the good old days And to all our friends May the memories last May they never end So we'll go our several ways Wishing somehow we could stay Safe again so safe again in all our Innocence When we all would sing along As they played our favorite song Dreaming of tomorrows That seemed so limitless So as we come together Let's make this moment last Here's to us and to the past To the good old days To the sweetest years To the ones we loved Through the laughs and tears To the times ahead May we all forgive To the good old days Long may they live Funny how the years have slipped away Always there beyond our grasp Funny how it all seems looking back Oh oh oh To the good old days When we all were young To the love we shared May our songs be sung To the times ahead May we all forgive To the good old days Long may they live To the good old days When we all were young To the love we shared May our songs be sung To the times ahead May we all forgive To the good old days May they always live
