FAWM #3 - When Love Was Easy
It only takes a little bit of snow
To remind me of the winters, when I was ten years old
Sliding down a hill and going fast
Then going back inside and warming up then going back
Mitten clips and chocolate chips
And snow pants full of holes
Snow ball fights on Friday nights
And landline telephones
It never really took much to ever please me
When everything was free and love was easy
I remember when the swimming pool was home
If you had to call your parents, you had to pay to use the phone
The diving board was built for doing flips
But cannonball were all I ever did
Ice cream cones and broken bones
And signing someone’s cast
If I could, you know I would
I’d try to get it back
It never really took much to please me
When everything was free and love was easy
But I can’t complain, cuz relivin’ those days
Must mean that they’re never quite gone
Remember when we all were starting bands
Oh, all the stupid dreams we must have had
We always had these dreams to make it big
But I never knew a single souls that did
We’d sell our souls for microphones and learn each other’s song
Sell CD-s and MP3’s, hope something might catch on
It never really took much to please me
When everything was free and love was easy
