Lyrics
Good old days
Purple haze
The memory stays
The past keeps slipping away
There’s no making it stay
And I’m here finding my way
In the brand new day
Old friend Bill
I miss him still
They read his will
My friends keep slipping away
There’s no making them stay
And I’m here finding my way
In the brand new day
Brand new day
Shines down on my face
Brand new day
…got dreams to chase
I’m on my way in the brand new day
The Fillmore stage…
While guitars played
We came of age
The time keeps tickin’ away
There’s no making it stay
And I’m here finding my way
A brand new day
