Lyrics

Days Go By


(Verse)

Couldn't wait to leave this town

The water tank in the rear view mirror,

We were glory bound



At our high school reunion

Oh, don't let me down

I'm searching for your face




(Pre-Chorus)

Oh, I once believed in yesterdays

And your heart hadn't changed



(Chorus)

And the days go by

Summer nights turned into years

Take your dreams and fly

High above your hopes and fears


Cause the days go by, The days go by





(Verse)

Caught the next thing smoking outa' here

Destination was unclear

I guess I had to try my wings




You married young, had a son, looks like the one,

Who up and ran,

And left you behind

It wasn't quite like you planned











(Bridge)

Oh, sometimes the greatest risk,

Is never taking one at all

We were younger then




(Chorus)

And the days went by

Summer nights turned into years

Are you willing to try?

We can rise above the tears

Cause, the days go by

Days go by

Days go by
