Lyrics:
I was listening to the radio
I heard a song reminded me of long ago
Back then I thought that things were never gonna change
It used to be that I never had to feel the pain
I know that things will never be the same now
I wanna go back
And do it all over again
But I can't go back I know
I wanna go back
Cause I'm feeling so much older
But I can't go back I know

[@ButterCookie1984]

I think those of us who experienced the 80s feel heavy nostalgia because we can remember praying for the future to hurry and get here. Never realizing that we were actually in the best days ever...

​@kimbergeron9720 I agree with you. Eddie was about 37 when he did this song so I highly doubt it was about a specific era and if any probably the 60s 70s but I think it was probably more about any Era for any teenager. He also did not write the song.

You can make the change and surrender it over to Almighty God, rebuking that generational curse in Jesus Christ Powerful Name. Almighty God is thee only one who can heal you, if you allow HIM. Never wish eternal hell on anyone, you will live your life in regret, rather pray that in your dads last days which I’m sure he knew and regretted being a pos,,, that he asked forgiveness of God. You see when someone treats others so horribly you have to step back and realize they treated you the same way they were treated as a child. That’s why I said God gives us power and authority to break and rebuke those generational curses. You are nothing like your father was right? No matter what, you can change the course of your life and become who you were created to be, you are NOT a product of your father or mother, God made you and every human being uniquely different.
