Dan Fogelberg – These Days lyrics
I used to think of myself as a soldier
Holding his own against impossible odds
Badly outnumbered and caught in a crossfire of devils and gods.

All I ever wanted to be was free
All I ever wanted to see was within my eyes to see
Oh, but, these days
Are just like you and me
These days
Are just like you and me.

You used to be something I could believe in
How could you let me forsake myself so,
You used to think of your life as a riddle with no answer known.

All you ever wanted to be was free
All you ever looked for was what was within your sights to see
Oh, but, these days
Are just like you and me
These days
Are just like you and me

We used to live like there was no tomorrow
Tasting our trials a day at a time
Laughing at sorrow and crying for justice such innocent crimes.

All we ever wanted to be was free
All we ever looked for was what was within our eyes to see
Oh, but, these days
Are just like you and me
These days are just like you and me
Just like you and me.
You know they're just like you and me.
