Best Years Of Our Lives
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.
When I was young and restless I wasted so much time
Halfway stoned and halfway out of my mind
Well I don't feel that much different though now I realize
These are the best years of our lives
These are the best years that we're living in
And I know that someday later we're gonna reach the end
Though time stacks up against us the fire inside still thrives
These are the best years of our lives
[ steel - guitar - fiddle ]
These are the best years that we're living through
Then I know that someday later you're gonna know that too
There's so much more to living now than the kind of car we drive
These are the best years of our live these are the best years of our live
