These Days (Remastered)

[Verse 1]

Hey baby, is that you?

Wow, your hair got so long

Yeah, yeah, I love it, I really do

"Norma Jean", ain't that the song we'd sing in the car?

Driving downtown, top down, making the rounds

Checking out the bands on Doheeney Avenue

Yeah, life throws you curves

But you learned to swerve

Me, I swung and I missed and the next thing ya know

I'm reminiscing

Dreaming old dreams, wishing old wishes

Like you would be back again

[Chorus]

I wake up in teardrops that fall down like rain

I put on that old song we danced to and then

I head off to my job

Guess not much has changed

Punch the clock, head for home

Check the phone, just in case

Go to bed, dream of you

That's what I'm doing these days

Yeah, that's what I'm doing

[Verse 2]

Someone told me after college, you ran off to Vegas

You married a rodeo cowboy

Wow, that ain't the girl I knew

Me, I've been a few places

Mostly here and there, once or twice

Still sortin' out life, but I'm doing alright

Yeah, it's good to see you too

Well, hey girl, you're late

And those planes, they don't wait

But if you ever come back around this sleepy old town

Promise me you'll stop in to see an old friend

And until then...

[Chorus]

I wake up in teardrops that fall down like rain

I put on that old song we danced to and then

I head off to my job

Guess not much has changed

Punch the clock, head for home

Check the phone, just in case

Go to bed, dream of you

That's what I'm doing these days

These days

[Instrumental Break]

Baby

[Chorus]

I wake up in teardrops that fall down like rain

I put on that old song we danced to and then

I head off to my job

Guess not much has changed

Punch the clock, head for home

Check the phone, just in case

Go to bed, dream of you

That's what I'm doing these...

[Outro]

I wake up in teardrops that fall down like rain

I put on that old song we danced to and then

I wake up in teardrops that fall down like rain

I put on that old song we danced to and then

I wake up in teardrops that fall down like rain

I put on that old song we danced to and then
