Summary: Those wonderful days are tinged in gold


I wish that I could go right back in time
For life has lost its reason and its rhyme

Back to the days of malls and slumber parties
Eight-bit Nintendo games and laughing hearty

Those wonderful days are tinged in gold
How can it be that I'm really this old

Those Eighties days have dropped away in fog
My Little Pony, neon, and my favorite dog

My Grandpa is long gone, that wonderful man
And my life hasn't gone according to plan

In memories, though, I forever will be rich
My fondness for them I will never, ever ditch
