Lost in Simplicity

[Verse] In our minds We rewind to simpler days No Google No Facebook No cellphones Just the beach The bonfire And familiar faces Roasting s'mores Sharing laughter in those places [Pre-Chorus] No distractions Just the sound of crashing waves Telling scary stories under moonlit shades Food on the BBQ The aroma fills the air Friends gathered 'round Making memories to share [Chorus] Oh How I miss those simple days No influencers or Youtube Ads in our way Phoneless Concerts Loud Arcades Spooky Halloween nights Oh I long for those memories that shine so bright [Verse 2] Oh The simple days How I long for them I swear No Uber Eats No Uber fees No hustle and no glare No OnlyFans Just simple plans Popping a cassette into the stereo A nice girl in the shotgun seat Windows rolled down Feeling the summer breeze [Chorus] Oh How I miss those simple days No influencers or Youtube Ads in our way Phoneless Concerts Loud Arcades Spooky Halloween nights Oh I long for those memories that shine so bright [Verse 4] Cruising down the sidewalk Eight wheels beneath our feet Carving up the streets Feeling the summer heat No Netflix No Spotify Just movies on DVD From Blockbuster nights The simple days set us free Oh I long for those memories that shine so bright [bridge - interlude] We were pen-pals, sharing our hearts In ink-stained pages where our stories start Now it's notifications, No time for the sentiment, No more time for meeting [Pre-chorus] We've lost the art of patience, the joy of anticipation To express with words, now just abbreviations LOL, LMAO, T-F-T-I No more long goodbyes (On the telephone) So don't at me, Don't D-M me, Come see me by the pier And we'll grab a couple beers [Chorus] Oh How I miss those simple days No influencers or Youtube Ads in our way Phoneless Concerts Loud Arcades Spooky Halloween nights Oh I long for those memories that shine so bright [outro] [Bridge] In a world of likes and shares We forget what truly matters It's the moments we hold dear The friendships and the laughter So let's unplug and rewind Back to those simpler times Where joy was in the little things And life was truly divine
