[Hook]

You were just a boy
Kamu cuma seorang anak laki-laki
And I was just a girl in love
Dan aku cuma seorang gadis yang jatuh cinta
Cabangas was a toy
Cabangas itu seperti mainan
And the rubics cube made life seem tough
Dan kubus Rubik bikin hidup terasa sulit
Truth or dare was a game
Truth or dare jadi permainan
All your crew would dress the same to
Semua temanmu berpakaian sama
School each day
Setiap hari ke sekolah
I remember when oh do you remember when
Aku ingat saat itu, oh, apakah kamu ingat?
Back in the day, back in the day.
Kembali ke masa lalu, kembali ke masa lalu.

[verse i]

Life was so simple back then
Hidup begitu sederhana saat itu
Double dutch and talking junk
Double dutch dan ngobrol santai
Was what we did
Itulah yang kami lakukan
Hangin outside with my friends
Bersenang-senang di luar dengan teman-teman
Till the street lamp said
Sampai lampu jalan bilang
It's time to come in (sometimes I)
Saatnya masuk (kadang-kadang aku)

[b-sec]

Long for the days
Merindukan hari-hari itu
No work and all play
Tanpa kerja dan hanya bersenang-senang
Long for the times
Merindukan masa-masa
Innocently blind
Yang buta akan kenyataan

[verse ii]

Life was so simple back then
Hidup begitu sederhana saat itu
Quarter water's when we're thirsty
Air seperempat saat kita haus
Gave the quench
Memberi rasa lega
We were so easy to please
Kami sangat mudah senang
Candy necklaces and rings
Kalung dan cincin permen
Were to us the finer things
Bagi kami itu adalah hal-hal yang istimewa

[verse iii]

Life was so simple it seemed
Hidup tampaknya sangat sederhana
Rockin kangols w/adidas and lee jeans
Bergaya dengan kangol, adidas, dan celana jeans Lee
Nameplates and 4 finger rings
Plakat nama dan cincin empat jari
Jelly sandals for your feet
Sandal jelly untuk kakimu
Mr. Softee made life sweet
Mr. Softee membuat hidup terasa manis
How I long __
Betapa aku merindukannya __

[bridge]

New edition sang to me
New Edition menyanyikan lagu untukku
Ronnie, bobby, johnny, ricky and mike
Ronnie, Bobby, Johnny, Ricky, dan Mike
(don't forget ralph)
(jangan lupakan Ralph)
That's what I remember
Itulah yang aku ingat
Loving you came easily
Mencintaimu terasa mudah
First time we ever kissed goodnite
Kali pertama kita berciuman selamat malam
Do you remember?
Apakah kamu ingat?
