How Things Used To Be
While I still write and certainly listen to sad love songs, I don't always want them sad. This is a song about a guy who's crushed that his girl left him, but the overall tone of the song is just reflective, a guy looking back on the good in his life, and isn't necessarily written to be some emotional tear-jerker. It's far more upbeat than that.

Girl, it ain't like it used to be
When you were you
And I was me
And we were we
Yeah, that's us
Just happy and so much in love
Seasons change
Things come and go
Fall leaves die
And new seeds grow
Young come in to replace the old
And around, and...
Well, yeah, you know
(Chorus)
There ain't nothin' new 'bout life
We all ain't done a thousand times
Still it takes some gettin' used
To strike a line through you and I
What used to be the ocean
Turns to rain, returns to seas
But that don't mean I can't reflect
'Bout how things used to be
Yeah, I'd say I'm adjusting fine
If you ignore the pain
And most my cryin'
And most my time
Just missing you
Askin' where we went so wrong
Some people drift
Things come apart
No one gets through
Without a broken heart
Every finish begins a new start
More fish, and all
But, yeah, it's hard
(Chorus)
I think I might be over-thinkin'
'Tween the love songs and the drinkin'
Insist I will, 'cause can't find a pill
That stops my heart from achin'
(Chorus)
