Best Years Of Your Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
(And these will be the best years of your life)
You say your heart is broken that my love was just a token
You say this parting touch you like a knife
But if you let it grieve you your youth would surely leave you
Cause these should be the best years of your life
I know it won't be easy cause your memories are busy
And yet you're still too young for all the strife
So let me tell you like a brother go on out and find another
And these will be the best years of your life
[ guitar ]
You say that taste is bitter because you loved a quitter
But I'm not free to take you for a while
You're lucky that it's over cause somehow you recover
And these will be the best years of your life
I know it won't be easy...
