Good Times
Chasing Memories: Rediscovering Youth in Housing Co.'s 'Good Times'
Lyrics
I remember jumping off the roof
Recalling a daring memory of jumping off a roof
School bus dates and sunny days
Reflecting on school bus dates and carefree sunny days
With nothing better to do
Describing a period with no specific plans or activities
Senior girl who'd walk me back from school
Remembering a senior girl who used to accompany back from school
My allowance spent on junk
Money spent on trivial things, emphasizing innocence
And trying to be cool
Attempting to fit in and be perceived as cool
And that's how they say it goes
Reflecting on the transient nature of life experiences
You can't quite tell when you're in it
Difficulty recognizing the significance of the present moment
And ain't that the way it goes
Commenting on life's unpredictability and uncertainties
I guess all we can do is live it
Acceptance of life's uncertainties and embracing the journey
But I just keep on forgetting
Struggling to remember important aspects of life
Tell me
Prompting a question about the disappearance of good times
Where'd all the good times go
Expressing a desire to return to enjoyable moments
Im trying to make it back to you
Effort to reconnect with past happiness and experiences
Tell me
Reiterating the quest for lost good times
Where'd all the good times go
Hoping for the imminent return of positive experiences
I only hope they're coming soon
Expressing optimism about the arrival of good times
I only hope they're coming soon
Reiteration of hope for the upcoming positive moments
Now every time I drive up to your house
Driving to someone's house and reflecting on the past
See the roads
Observing the roads associated with past memories
The roads that we would walk and talk about
Recalling walks and conversations on those roads
Don't seem as big now
Realizing a change in perception of the once-significant roads
And that's how they say it goes
Highlighting the difficulty in recognizing the present's importance
You can't quite tell when you're in it
Reiterating the challenge of understanding the current moment
And ain't that the way it goes
Stressing the unpredictability of life's course
I guess all we can do is live it
Acceptance of life's uncertainties and the need to live it
But I just keep on forgetting
Struggling to retain the memory of significant moments
Tell me
Prompting a question about the disappearance of good times
Where'd all the good times go
Expressing a desire to return to enjoyable moments
I'm trying to make it back to you
Effort to reconnect with past happiness and experiences
Tell me
Reiterating the quest for lost good times
Where'd all the good times go
Hoping for the imminent return of positive experiences
I only hope they're coming soon
Expressing optimism about the arrival of good times
I only hope they're coming soon
Reiteration of hope for the upcoming positive moments
And ain't that the way it goes
Stressing the unpredictability of life's course
I guess all we can do is live it
Acceptance of life's uncertainties and the need to live it
But I just keep on forgetting
Struggling to retain the memory of significant moments
Tell me
Prompting a question about the disappearance of good times
Where'd all the good times go
Expressing a desire to return to enjoyable moments
I'm trying to make it back to you
Effort to reconnect with past happiness and experiences
Tell me
Reiterating the quest for lost good times
Where'd all the good times go
Hoping for the imminent return of positive experiences
I only hope they're coming soon
Expressing optimism about the arrival of good times
I only hope they're coming soon
Reiteration of hope for the upcoming positive moments
