Every Time We're Together Lyrics - Nickelback

I'm back in my hometown 

And Main Street's dying now 

It's like there's nothing left of it 

No more high school grounds 

They tore that building down 

And everything with it I miss 

I call up my old friends 

So long since I've seen them 

It's like we're back there instantly to me 

We all meet at Shawn's 

The backyard fire's on 

And we start telling tales of how life used to be 

The years have come and gone 

But the stories carry on 

Looking back they're better than they used to be 

'Cause you should have seen the size of the guys we were fighting 

And we shouldn't be alive at the speeds we were driving 

But Mama always taught us to never tell a lie, ooh 

And every ten-yard pass always turned into twenty 

Every girl we were with never cost any money 

And we drank more tequila than any man alive 

And the story goes on and gets a little better 

Every time we're together 

It's funny how we change 

And some things stay the same 

God, I miss the glory days always 

With daylight getting near 

We shed a few more tears 

Lord, I love the memories we've made 

The years have come and gone 

But the stories carry on 

Looking back they're better than they used to be 

'Cause you should have seen the size of the guys we were fighting 

And we shouldn't be alive at the speeds we were driving 

But Mama always taught us to never tell a lie, ooh 

And every ten-yard pass always turned into twenty 

Every girl we were with never cost any money 

And we drank more tequila than any man alive 

And the story goes on and gets a little better 

Every time we're together 

Well you should have seen the size of the guys we were fighting 

And we shouldn't be alive at the speeds we were driving 

But Mama always taught us to never tell a lie, ooh 

And every ten-yard pass always turned into twenty 

Every girl we were with never cost any money 

And we drank more tequila than any man alive 

And the story goes on and gets a little better 

Every time we're together 

And the story goes on and gets a little better 

Every time we're together
