[Verse 1] In a bucolic town where the fields grow wide, A boy met a girl where love can’t hide. High school love under soft moon glow, Plannin' forever, where life moves slow. [Verse 2] Her folks moved town, for better pay, She said she'd come back to him some day. Her letters, calls, began to fade, And with them all the love they made. [Chorus] Way back when, we were young and we were free, Now you and I are just a memory. But I still think of you, every now and then, In those golden days, way back when. [Verse 3] Seasons changed and years went by. I never knew the reason why. The love we had just slipped away. And memories start, to fade away. [Chorus] Way back when, we were young and we were free, Now you and I are just a memory. But I still think of you, every now and then, In those golden days, way back when. [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] You've moved on and so have I, Memories fade as time goes by. But in my heart I know, you'll always stay. [Chorus] Way back when, we were young and we were free, Now you and I are just a memory. But I still think of you, every now and then, In those golden days, way back when. [outro]
