Edie Brickell - Bright Star~Way Back in the Day Lyrics

Alice Murphy

Way back in the day
I would have gone with you
Way back in the day
You could not have kept me away
I was the life of the party
I was happy and carefree
Dancing on the floor with everybody
He was next to me

We'd sing and we'd sway
To every song together
Way back in the day
I could not wait to get away
Moonlight, music from across the river
Calling, playing through the night
I would run barefoot through the sounds of summer
To be with everyone

Way back in the day
You never would have had to ask me
Way back in the day
I would have been the first one to say
Come on, what are you waiting for?
It's all going on outside of your door
I won't take no for an answer
You're coming out with me
