Good Ol’ Days by Hayley Williams
[Verse 1: Hayley Williams]
Desire, tidal wave, I can’t tame it
I’m not a water bender, can’t change it
I’m thinking maybe I need a surfboard (Surfboard)
Just gotta ride it out, get it all out
When you’re not mine, am I allowed?
When I was a secret, you kept me
Skinny divorcé, do you regret me?
I’m thinking maybe
Should we go back? Stay friends?
Keep all the benefits?
[Pre-Chorus: Hayley Williams]
We could sneak around like we’re on tour
Even if that’s all you want me for, for
You could call me Miss Paramour
[Chorus: Hayley Williams]
‘Cause I miss you like I miss the rage
Like I miss rеal ink on a page
Who knew, who knew, my baby
Who knеw the hard times were the good ol’ days?
‘Cause I miss you, miss kissing your face
Blissin’ out to music we made
Who knew, who knew, my baby
Who knew the hard times were the good ol’ days?
[Verse 2: Hayley Williams]
Have to get it out of my system
Don’t like songs about you, don’t listen
If I’m being honest, I’m almost done
Not easy letting go of the one
I’m not Stevie, I won’t hex ya
But my voice may surely vex ya
For that, I’m sorry (Sorry)
I just want to love ya, but you won’t let me
[Chorus: Hayley Williams]
‘Cause I miss you like I miss the rage
Like I miss real ink on a page
Who knew, who knew, my baby
Who knew the hard times were the good ol’ days? (I)
‘Cause I miss you, miss kissing your face (Miss you)
Bli.ssin’ out to music we made (Oh, I do)
Who knew, who knew, my baby
Who knew the hard times were the good ol’ days?
[Interlude: Rusty Williams]
You are so tacky
I think that’s why I love you so much
I just had to call you first on my new phone
I love you, y’all have a blast, bye
[Bridge: Hayley Williams]
Secret love
Secret love
Secret love
Love, ah
What’s in a name? (Secret love)
What’s in a name? (Secret love)
What’s in a name? Mm (Secret love)
What’s in a name?
What’s in a name? (Love, ah)
Fate’s got a funny way, baby
[Chorus: Hayley Williams]
‘Cause I miss you like I miss the rage (Secret love, secret love)
Like I miss real ink on a page (Secret love)
Who knew, who knew, my baby (Love)
Who knew the hard times were the good ol’ days? (I)
‘Cause I miss you, miss kissing your face (Miss you; Secret love, secret love)
Blissin’ out to music we made (Oh, I do; Secret love)
Who knew, who knew, my baby (Love)
Who knew the hard times were the good ol’ days?
[Outro]

Love, ah
