The Handsome Family Back in my Day Lyrics

VRS 1
We had maps that unfolded
back in my day
You could drink from the river
We had gods made of clay
There were mile-high glaciers,
no locks on the doors
The stars burned brighter
We never counted past four
And the birds were always watching
There were monsters in the sea
We wore watches on our wrists
There were ghosts in the trees
HORUS
Way back in the days,
you're too young to have seen,
When the nights were darker,
longer and deep
INTRLU
VRS 2
There was no time or space
when I was growing up
We had summer all winter
The moon rose with the sun
And music sounded better
Recorded on rings of ice
And as the songs turned to water
we couldn't help but cry
HORUS
Way back in the good days,
the ones you didn't see,
When everything was better,
darker and deep
