It's a Trio, Me, Myself and I
Story behind the song
Just thinking of my two girls back then, inspired this song.
Lyrics
Back Then
(Jim Russ)
Now that theya019re grown up
It doesna019t stop me from thinking
Of all the things we did
Theya019ll always be my young kids
Playing in the yard, cooling down in their little pool
Playing with our dog, picking them up from school
Those were the days, thought theya019d never end
We ran and we laughed, couldna019t get enough of them
Couldna019t wait to get home to them
Thata019s how life was for us back then
Calling me dad felt so good back then
Fun in the sun and sledding in the cold
Couldna019t imagine them grown and me old
Now that theya019re grown up
It doesna019t stop me from thinking
Of all the things I said
While tucking them in their bed
Wishing them a good night, planning what wea019ll do tomorrow
Telling them about the fun wea019ll have, reminding them that I love them so
Those were the days, didna019t see life slipping by
Exploring new playgrounds, sometimes fell and cried
Shook it off, tried again, tears will dry
Thata019s how life was for us back then
They made me laugh again and again
Riding our bikes, roller skating and swings
Water Parks and so many other things
Thata019s how life was for us back then
Calling me dad felt so good back then, thata019s how life was for us back then
In my mind Ia019m back and doing it all again
Feels good being back and doing it all again
