Best Days
Naming James Lyrics
Hey little girl, I wanna say
You bring the light on the dark days
I lost my way, but i feel fine
Cos you were there with the sunshine
Hey pretty thing, your heart’s alive
But you’ve got to lose all the little lies
Turn the page, start again
I’m with you right ’til the bitter end
When are we gonna finally realise
There’s a magic and a fire in our eyes
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
Hey old friend, I hope you’re fine
And nothing is sour on the grapevine
I did the deed and I will pay
I’ll make it up to you some day
When can say we finally realise
The magic and a fire in our eyes
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
Ooooh
These are the best day
Yeah
These are the best days
You bring the light on the dark days
I lost my way, but i feel fine
Cos you were there with the sunshine
Hey pretty thing, your heart’s alive
But you’ve got to lose all the little lies
Turn the page, start again
I’m with you right ’til the bitter end
There’s a magic and a fire in our eyes
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
Hey old friend, I hope you’re fine
And nothing is sour on the grapevine
I did the deed and I will pay
I’ll make it up to you some day
When can say we finally realise
The magic and a fire in our eyes
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
It’s okay, these are the best days
Ooooh
These are the best day
Yeah
These are the best days
