117 valley drive
|
seemed like heaven when the band arrived
|
with a couple of drums and a couple guitars
|
we'd play our hearts out in my backyard
|
and the people came from everywhere
|
to put their plastic chairs in the summer air
|
down on valley drive
|
people came with kids and dogs, sat out on the lawn,
|
and they sang along with a hard hay's Nhght
|
and a ticket to ride
|
we were barely in our teens
|
yeah, laughin' like crazy, yeah, livin' our dreams
|
well, the boys just cut up and the girls just talk
|
but when we'd start up, well, the world would stop
|
though it was a different age
|
nothing's gone and nothing's changed
|
in my mind
|
what it was was a way of life
|
but no one noticed we'd run out of time
|
