Tom Paxton - Bad Old Days lyrics
[Tom Paxton - Bad Old Days lyrics]
The gentle sound of your breathing
The murmur of the night
The sounds that really belong in music
And someday I just might
Meantime I just lie here smiling
Wide wake at dawn
And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
Oh, I wonder where my bad old days have gone
When I was lost with nothing to count on
Now I lie here smiling all night long
And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
The danger's in the telling I'm
Tempted to be bright
When the truth is they were bad old days
And didn't have to turn out right
I love you more than morning and
Part of the reason why
Is you helped me kiss those
Bad old days goodbye
Oh, I wonder where my bad old days have gone
When I was lost with nothing to count on
Now I lie here smiling all night long
And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
You're quiet in the morning
You like to wake up slow
You need your coffee before you talk
I remember you tellin' me so
Was it sixteen years ago or was it yesterday
That you came and chased my
Bad old days away?
Now I wonder where my bad old days have gone
When I was lost with nothing to count on
Now I lie here smiling all night long
And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
Now I lie here smiling all night long
And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
The murmur of the night
The sounds that really belong in music
And someday I just might
Meantime I just lie here smiling
Wide wake at dawn
And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
Oh, I wonder where my bad old days have gone
When I was lost with nothing to count on
Now I lie here smiling all night long
And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
The danger's in the telling I'm
Tempted to be bright
When the truth is they were bad old days
And didn't have to turn out right
I love you more than morning and
Part of the reason why
Is you helped me kiss those
Bad old days goodbye
Oh, I wonder where my bad old days have gone
When I was lost with nothing to count on
Now I lie here smiling all night long
And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
You're quiet in the morning
You like to wake up slow
You need your coffee before you talk
I remember you tellin' me so
Was it sixteen years ago or was it yesterday
That you came and chased my
Bad old days away?
Now I wonder where my bad old days have gone
When I was lost with nothing to count on
Now I lie here smiling all night long
And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
Now I lie here smiling all night long
And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
