These Are the Days

We all have heavy loads
We all have shoulders full
With nothing left sometimes
But the push and pull
We all have news to face
We all have waters wide
That we've got to cross
Just to get to the other side
But remember

These are the days
These are the days
These are the days
They're the best days of our lives

The rain could be coming down
The sun could be searing hot
The wind could be at your throat
Whispering everything you are not
But when you finally stop
Open your eyes wide
You see what you've always known
It's still there inside

Remember, these are the days
These are the days
I said, these are the days
They're the best days of our lives

Don't you know I'm here for you
As you find your own way through
You live what you need to know with every step you take
Don't you know what you tell yourself
Oh, it's just a story
And when you breathe it in
It is always enough
Always enough

We all have heavy loads
We all have shoulders full
With nothing left but the push and the pull, but remember
I am here for you
And I believe in my heart, you are here for me too, oh darlin'
These are the days, these are the days
The best days of our lives
I just want to remember
I want to remember this day for the rest of my life
