The Lovely Years Lyrics

Those were the days
when we had childish dreams
We'd run through the house
chasing our cares away
Turn on the sprinklers
we'd roll in the evening grass
laughing until we cried

And I loved the lovely years
No worries - no fears
Oh what a great life

This is the best time
-holding our child all day
He gives me a smile
and mends every tear in me
And I love the lovely years
First words and steps are here
Oh what a great life

And when we're old
we'll sit and repeat ourselves
telling our favorite stories
And we'll love the lovely years
Remembering all the years
of such a great life

And we'll love the lovely days
They'll never fade away
Just look in my eyes
