This collaboration between Queen & the late (and very much lamented) George Michael pretty much sums it all:
Sometimes I get to feelin'
I was back in the old days- long ago
When we were kids, when we were young
Things seemed so perfect- you know?
Those days were endless, we were crazy, we were young
The sun was always shinin'- we just lived for fum
Sometimes it seems like lately- I just don't know
The rest of my life's been, just a show
Those were the days of our lives
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now, but one thing is true
When I look and I find I still love you
You can't turn back the clock, you can't turn back the tide
Ain't that a shame?
I'd like to go back one more time on a roller coaster ride
When life was just a game
No use sitting and thinkin' on what you did
When you can lay back and enjoy it through your kids
Sometimes it seems like lately, I just don't know
Better to sit back and go with the flow
These are the days of our lives
They've flown in the swiftness of time
These days are all gone now, but somethings remain
When I look and I find-no change
Those were the days of our lives
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now, but one thing's still true
When I look and I find- I still love you
I still love you.
