Lyrics
"These are now the days of our lives"
By Andrew Starry
(verse)
Please leave the curtain open
Nothin' in this room is mine
maybe I'll see someting outside
to restore my piece of mind
this aint how I set up my home
this home aint mine
we turn our heads
we turn our heads
towards the wall
for tonight we may sleep
in the bosom of Abraham
(Chorus)
These are now the days of our lives
Was just today our final sunrise
(Verse)
All The men around here
unstrengthened
and waited on
All the women around here
with their haircuts like boys
we turn our heads
we turn our heads
towards the wall
for tonight we may sleep
in the bosom of Abraham
Chorus)
These are now the days of our lives
Was just today our final sunrise
Not yet
Not yet
not yet goodbye
