Ahmad Gilani - When We Were Happy Lyrics

I still remember the sky so blue
My mother’s perfumes, her silk and her flowers
I used to think that we’d never grow older
That hearts never smolder
That I’d be home with you

The racing cars and the alleyways
The kids on the street under the sun’s golden rays
The Blazing Stars on the edge of the freeway
Our ribs tired from laughter and the holidays

Ah, ah, I still remember those good old days
Ah, ah, I still remember our good old ways

You know I’m not happy
You know I’m not sad
You know I’m not human
‘Cause love was all I had
You know I’m not good
You know I’m not bad
You know I’m a ruin
You know I’ve gone mad

I know that time can’t be brought back
But I have my memories tied up in a sack
Safe in my rhymes – aging like fine wine
You know I’m just trying to carve my own designs
I still surrender to the sound of the music
To which we danced to in the living room
While our mothers spent afternoons fixing the Tulips
Sipping their Juleps while our fathers worked hard
To bring good to our lips

Ah, ah, I still remember those good old days
Ah, ah, I still remember our good old ways

You know I’m not happy
You know I’m not sad
You know I’m not human
‘Cause love was all I had
You know I’m not good
You know I’m not bad
You know I’m a ruin
You know I’ve gone mad

You know I’m not happy
You know I’m just sad
You know I’m a human
Love was all that I had
You know I’ve done good
You know I’ve done bad
But why am I a ruin?
You know I’m not mad
