I remember when life was so simple

You did or you didn't

You would or you wouldn't

But it ain't like that anymore

I remember when life was so easy

People said what they meant

They were either for it or against

But it ain't like that anymore

Somewhere we lost the score

Bring back the days of yea and nay

When we could plainly see the way

Then it was up to us to choose

Whether to win or to lose

Bring back the time when we could see

What it was we were to be

Caught in the midst of complexities

We search for yea and nay

I remember when life was so simple

Parents were a light

Through them we saw what was right

But it ain't like that anymore

I remember when life was so easy

Boys grew into men

Little girls to women then

But it ain't like that anymore

Somewhere we lost the score

Bring back the days of yea and nay

When we could plainly see the way

Then it was up to us to choose

Whether to win or to lose

Bring back the time when we could see

What it was we were to be

Caught in the midst of complexities

We search for yea and nay

Yea and nay

We knew where we belonged

What was right and what was wrong

Bring back the days of yea and nay

When we could plainly see the way

Then it was up to us to choose

Whether to win or to lose

Bring back the time when we could see

What it was we were to be

Now caught in the midst of complexities

We search for yea and nay

Bring back those days

Bring back the time when we could see

What it was we were to be

Now caught in the midst of complexities

We search for yea and nay
