The Best Days Lyrics
I wanted to see boats
So you took me to the sea
I felt like I could fly
In this blue sky you showed to me
Airplanes passed above us
So only I could hear
When you whispered "I love you"
So sweetly in my ear
These are the best days
Night-time on an empty shore
Foggy like my head
Drifting off to sleep
To all those silly things you said
Waking for a moment
To say that we'd be fine
You hid your smile with one hand
And with the other, you held mine
These are the best days
So you took me to the sea
I felt like I could fly
In this blue sky you showed to me
Airplanes passed above us
So only I could hear
When you whispered "I love you"
So sweetly in my ear
Foggy like my head
Drifting off to sleep
To all those silly things you said
Waking for a moment
To say that we'd be fine
You hid your smile with one hand
And with the other, you held mine

great pop song, perfect for winding down a mix tape. These are the best days indeed...
This song is one of those that just touches my heart to the core. About a day spent with a loved one who goes out of his way to show her the ocean, in this case, simply because she wanted to see boats. They spend the day on the beach and wind up sleeping there into the evening as the fog rolls in. Somehow it reminds me of Westley in Princess Bride always saying "as you wish" to everything Buttercup says.
A very sweet, lovely song. It never ceases to relax me. It's such an honest song, because the best days are often the simplest... pure love expressed in small ways.<p><b><i>Edited by delial on February 15 2008, at 06:31AM</i></b></p>
It reminds me of young lovers, a boy and a girl next door, living near the sea. Their love is so innocent and pure.
" You hid your smile with one hand And with the other, you held mine..." so cute.
This is one of my all time favorite songs.
