The good times we've had, the smiles and the laughs
Are the pictures that fill up these frames
That hang in the halls and cover the walls
Of the home where we spend our days
Most times the good times are the times that we're in
And even the tough times we'd walk through again

But in the meantime, the holler and scream time
The crush all your dreams time, the can't hardly breathe time
When faith gets forgotten and hope falls behind
The love that we had turns bitter and bad
In the meantime

We've been through some years, some heartache, some tears
Some struggles like all people do
We held on by a thread to the vows that we said
And somehow we're still true blue
At yesterday's end we were still friends
And tomorrow might find us right back there again

But in the meantime, the holler and scream time
The crush all your dreams time, the can't hardly breathe time
When faith gets forgotten and hope falls behind
The love that we had turns bitter and bad
In the meantime
Lord help us outrun
The damage we've done
In the meantime
In the meantime
