Lyrics
THE BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE
I remember when I was a boy, there were no worries or fears
I got older and got out of school, what happened to those years
No time for fun, they gave me a gun, sent me far far away
I was in love I had lots of friends, how I wanted to stay
When I came home I picked up the phone, called my sweetheart from school
She ran off married another guy, made me look like a fool
I remember playing at the bars, different place every night
Lots of women what more could I want, I knew something won't right
As I look back, These are the best years of my life
CHORUS
These are the best years of my life, I never dreamed it could be this way
These are the best years of my life, it's getting better every day, As I look back, these are the best years of my life
Well I got married and I settled down, soon I was off gone again
I remember playing all the bars, my love was starting to thin
I was off and running again, we would go separate ways
Didn't understand why it didn't work, I understand it today
CHORUS
I remember going out that night, not a thing on my mind
Looked in her eyes and I knew it then, I never thought I could find
I never knew love felt like this, never knew love this way
From the time that I met her I knew, we'd be together some day
Years have past and I'm running again, but with my kids and my wife
I remember all of those years, but these are just the best of my life
As I look back, these are the best years of my life
CHORUS
