Like I Used To Do - Tim O'Brien

There was a time when we’d be the last to leave

Watching the sun come up while everyone fell asleep

The music was always loud and I’d smoke and drink too much

Until I’d fall in your arms and into your lovin' touch

Now as the years roll by, time has reeled me in

I’ve slowed down a notch or two from the way things were then

Those old ways of mine, I’ve left them behind

Those crazy days are through

The only thing I still do like I used to do

Is carry this torch for you

Remember the days when we’d pack our bags and run

Chasing a crazy dream into the morning sun

Now as the twilight falls, I find I’m satisfied

Watching the fire glow as long as you’re by my side

Here in my heart it seems, time has passed me by

I love you as much today as the very first time

Those old ways of mine, I’ve left them behind

Those crazy days are through

The only thing I still do like I used to do

Is carry this torch for you

I still want you the way I wanted you then

If I could do it all over, I’d do it all over again

Those old ways of mine, I’ve left them behind

Those crazy days are through

The only thing I still do like I used to do

Is carry this torch for you
