(Holly Lamar/Stephanie Bentley) |
|
I wake up to the sunshine out my |
|
window and the passin' sound of a homeless man |
|
Singin' an ol' Cole Porter song |
|
The faucet leaks, the TV's on the blink again |
|
But my restless dreams are still intact |
|
Even though it's takin' way too long |
|
Got a hundred dollars in a coke tin on my shelf |
|
And I'm thinkin' to myself, whoa |
|
These are the days you will remember for the rest of your life |
|
These are the memories you'll pack in a box and pull 'em out sometimes |
|
So pick your flowers, count the seconds, roll the dice |
|
But baby, don't wait 'till its too late |
|
Put a smile on your face |
|
These are the days |
|
Outside the people rush to get ahead for checks, promotions and fancy cars |
|
Happiness is just around the bend |
|
Old Mrs. Jones sits out and suns her face, and as I walk by I hear her say |
|
This is as good as it gets |
|
There goes the business suit who owns this whole damn block |
|
His roller coaster never stops |
|
I wanna say to him |
|
These are the days you will remember for the rest of your life |
|
These are the memories you'll pack in a box and pull 'em out sometimes |
|
So pick your flowers, count the seconds, roll the dice |
|
But baby, don't wait 'till its too late |
|
Put a smile on your face |
|
These are the days |
