I felt the best of my life when I was 17 and playing high skool football. Played every down. Except when they carried me off a couple times. My freshman year I fell down in the hole and a running back tried to jump over me, so i did a push up, he kicked me in the face between the facemask and helmet. It turned out he'd slit my eyebrow open and blood was running down my cheek. I didn't know it was until the referee told to leave the field. I looked at him and said "I don't have to, I stay on the field " he pulls my jersey out and the whole front was covered with blood. You'd think your coach would see that and bring you out to find out where all the blood came from. I don't mean there was spot the whole jersey was red. They put gauze on it with a couple of pieces of tape. Effectively blinding my right eye. It took all of 30 feet before I threw it on the ground. I'd have to say that from 72-75 was my prime years. Football, good times, good job, fast cars, and loose women. Best days of my life but are 45 years In the past, there ain't 40 in front, if I make 10 I'll be lucky.

It kinda makes me sad, being my age, and still feeling connected to a past when I was stronger and more hopeful about life. I miss those days ... now life is a constant kick in the gut because I let many things go by without grabbing onto them and letting them take me where they would.

The last few times I saw him in concert, he explained his thoughts on this song. He was a distance runner in high school. The first verse is how he would feel after a great workout. You just have a feeling of being so strong and invincible. My favorite part to think about is what he means with the second verse. He starts it off with "20 years now, where'd they go. 20 years, I don't know. I sit and I wonder sometimes, where they've gone." Is he just talking about the passing of time, or something more? The last line of the first verse is "I still believed in my dreams". Is he talking about all the dreams a young person has that don't come true? I suppose a little of both. Just a great all around song!!!

Bob is the best seen him back in the 80s best concert I ever seen love this man's voice. This song really makes you think where has my life gone. It's been great I'm not like a rock anymore but that's ok as long as I got Bob to listen to

Bruce is an incredible talent, but it never set well with me that his songs tend to have the theme "small town American life is terrible and/or I've got to become a big rich star. Bob on the other hand; his recurring theme seems to be "small town American life can be beautiful." IMHO that's why Bob seems more like the genuine article to folks.

I really love watching reaction videos from you and a handful of others because it causes me to re-listen to the songs of my youth with fresh ears. I knew the music was great, but the lyrics are so meaningful. Thanks! In this song and Bob Seger's whole catalog. I love the first verse of this one, where he sings about being 18, didn't have a care, working for peanuts, not a dime to spare and unencumbered by the weight of all the hustlers and and their schemes, I stood proud, I stood tall, High above it all, I still believed in my dreams. Oh man those were the days!
