Like I Used To Do Lyrics - Tim O'brien

There was a time when we'd be the last to leave 

Watching the sun come up while everyone fell asleep 

The music was always loud and I'd smoke and drink too much 

Until I'd fall in your arms and into your lovin' touch 

Now as the years roll by, time has reeled me in 

And I've slowed down a notch or two from the way things were then 

And those old ways of mine, I've left them behind 

Those crazy days are through 

The only thing I still do like I used to do 

Is carry this torch for you 

Remember the days when we'd pack our bags and run 

Chasing some crazy dream into the morning sun 

Now as the twilight falls, I find I'm satisfied 

Watching the fire glow as long as you're by my side 

Here in my heart it seems, time has passed me by 

And I love you as much today as the very first time 

And those old ways of mine, I've left them behind 

Those crazy days are through 

The only thing I still do like I used to do 

Is carry this torch for you 

I still want you the way I wanted you then 

If I could do it all over, I'd do it all over again 

And those old ways of mine, I've left them behind 

Those crazy days are through 

The only thing I still do like I used to do 

Is carry this torch for you 

The only thing I still do like I used to do 

Is carry this torch for you
