So Good To See Ya

in dsound •  7 years ago 


This is a song about bumping into an old childhood friend that you haven’t seen for years and the memories that get awoken by the meeting, those days seem like a lifetime ago.

Lyrics -

Ya got lines on ya face now , crazy ain't it
makes ya realise how quick time goes by .
It's not often I think of those days ,
in fact it's practically never , I don't know why
coz when I stop and think about it , it makes me realise
they're actually the best days of my life .
No money , no stress , no worries , no problem
big enough to torture my mind.
And seeing ya today made me rewind
to another time that got misplaced ,
memories i thought had been erased
with the puddles of acid I fell in on pathways
that I chose to take .
It's easy to see the mistakes ya made when ya look back .
But it's never to late to get them back
and it took an old face to make me realise that
yeah .

(chorus) So good to see ya my friend ,
so good to see ya my friend ,
it's been so long man ,
how ya been.
so good to see ya my friend ,
I never thought I'd ever
see you again.

In those days we used to run these streets and
no one would believe us if we told them
what we got up to back then ,
I'd never let my kids get away with that .
Just imagine what our parents must have been
going through ,
do ya ever wonder how much they knew ,
I hear ya got a couple of kids now too
so it's easy to put yourself in their shoes .
And we never would have thought back in the day
that we'd turn into our parents hey ,
we'd never believe them when they'd say
that we'd understand one day .
And it's hard to admit that they were right all along
we thought we knew it all but we were wrong ,
but no regrets at all , those days were amazing ,
we're a product of where we came from , yeah .

(chorus) So good to see ya my friend ,
so good to see ya my friend ,
it's been so long man ,
how ya been.
so good to see ya my friend ,
I never thought I'd ever
see you again.

(chorus) So good to see ya my friend ,
so good to see ya my friend ,
it's been so long man ,
how ya been.
so good to see ya my friend ,
I never thought I'd ever
see you again. (mid 8 break)

(chorus) So good to see ya my friend ,
so good to see ya my friend ,
it's been so long man ,
how ya been.
so good to see ya my friend ,
I never thought I'd ever
see you again .

I never thought I'd ever
see you again.

Love to ya family man.
So good to see ya my friend .
