Back When

Back When (回到那时) - Jade Jackson

Do you remember when

Life was a spiral bound we were the pen

Before wishin' we woulda used lead

I thought of you drove by the spot on the street

On the way to the school bus where we used to meet

And I lost my breath just like when we were late and we were runnin'

I wanna go back to the post office

Sort through the thrown away mail

Back when we'd climb up on the roof of

The old town jail

Back when we smiled we were beamin'

And when we cried we wailed

I wanna be the bird on the wire

So many things I forgot to admire

That to god was worth savin'

Time doesn't whistle or rattle the tracks

And you don't hear it coming or see when it passes

And the ones it takes

Won't be window seat wavin'

I wanna sit by you on the bench of your truck

Drive out the old 58

Back when we'd listen to hank Williams

And stare at the stars too late

Back when we smiled we were dreamin'

And when we cried we wailed

I wanna meet you at the school after dark

Let you push me on the swing

Back when I thought you'd be the one to

Save up and buy me a ring

Yea back when we smiled we were feelin'

Yeah back when we smiled we were beamin'

And when we cried we wailed
