The Best Years Of Your Life, Kid
Last year, I was told by a gentleman You're looking at the best years of your life, kid Well, I guess they they're scheduled settle in Cause anything is better than a best like this Now the wise men whisper in their wisdom And they're telling me that "nothing lasts" But I would bet that these bridges have been burning Back before I ever struck a match (nothing lasts) I'm not betting man, but if I was? I would bet my bottom dollar that the world is flat They said I'm wrong, cause I'm looking at the surface And I'll never find a pearl like that I wish my mother would have took us back home When she threatened our behavior on the way to the beach This house once echoed with the sounds of laughter Till we shattered it's eyes and nailed boards to it's teeth Last year I was told by a gentleman That trust can be a neighbor to regret and mistake We're just children in the garden of tomorrow Playing ding dong ditch with the heavenly gates When I was seven or eight I would wait for the winter months Making snow angels Till the wings made my fingers numb And then I'm twenty one, wishing I was twelve Letras de cancionesFeeling like I'm forty-seven, bored to death of this living hell Someday I'll bundle all the children up in layers For the February blizzard blowing over Pennsylvania And pray they never learn the lesson that I have tonight That the moments in the photographs are never coming back to life But the sky ain't falling, my dear, it's changing colors From Letras Mania
