Red Cassette - Mamas Gun, ANDY PLATTS, Terry Lewis

From the golden days of long ago

The ones you’ll never forget

In a shoebox filled with memories

I found a red cassette

And my friends thought it was strange that I was stolen away

Out of the sunshine

Making one-man radio shows long into the night

Whoa

Red cassette, take me back, take me back to when it all began

Red cassette, take me back, take me back to when it all began

I asked my teacher at school what she wanted to be

She said, «It's too late for that»

I could see it in her eyes that dreams are just a fantasy

They only lead to regret

So I stuck each teenage kids closed another first kiss

Somewhere under the moonlight

I put my headphones on and let the good times roll tonight

Whoa

Red cassette, take me back, take me back to when it all began

Red cassette, take me back, take me back to when it all began

Red cassette, take me back, take me back to when it all began

Red cassette, take me back, take me back to when it all began

Turning the reels back to yesterday

When the promise of youth was an empty page

Now I beat my band and I’m busy living for tomorrow

Whoa

Red cassette, take me back, take me back to when it all began

Red cassette, take me back, take me back to when it all began

Red cassette, take me back, take me back to when it all began

Red cassette, take me back, take me back to when it all began

The time won’t stop slipping away

Gotta live in the moment every day

Gotta keep on moving but I can’t forget

Now I put it all down on a little cheap red cassette

Red cassette, take me back, take me back to when it all began

Red cassette, take me back, take me back to when it all began

To when it all began, to when it all began, to when it all began

To when it all began, to when it all began, to when it all began
