The Best Of Times lyrics

Remember days of yesterday

And how it flew so fast

The two score and a year we had,

I thought would always last

The summer days and west coast dreams,

I wished would never end

A young boy and his father,

Idol and best friend

I'll always remember

Those were the best of times

A lifetime together

I'll never forget

Morning shows on the radio

The case of the missing dog

Lying on the fields at the only twelve

Watching Harold and Maude

Record shops, the stick-ball fields

My home away from home

When we weren't together

The hours on the phone

I'll always remember

Those were the best of times

I'll cherish them forever

The best of times

But then came the call

Our lives changed forever more

You can pray for a change

But prepare for the end

The fleeting winds of time

Flying through each day

All the things I should have done

But time just slipped away

Remember "seize the day"

Life goes by in the blink of an eye

There's so much left to say

These were the best of times

I'll miss these days

Your spirit led my life each day

Thank you for the inspiration

Thank you for the smiles

All the unconditional love

That carried me for miles

It carried me for miles

But most of all thank you for my life

These were the best of times

I'll miss these days

Your spirit led my life each day

My heart is bleeding bad

But I'll be okay

Your spirit guides my life each day
