these days
The Turncoat and band Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sweet sweat dripping
You and me sipping on something cold
Sunlight slipping
Sinking down into pinks and golds
We’re lying here
On a picnic blanket
Just me and her
And her daddy’s words
Written her mammas locket
Said
These are the days
These are our days in the sun
These are the days
Running on whiskey and fun
These are the days
Want a little one on one
Ya these are the days
These are our days in the sun
Yeah, yeah These are the days
Moonlight creepin'
She's slippin’ into somethin' more comfortable
My heart stop beatin’
Making this night unforgettable
We’re lying here
Underneath the sheets
Just dreaming ‘bout how
We couldn’t live without
Making more nights like these
...that start with the days
These are our days in the sun
These are the days
Running on whiskey and fun
These are the days
Want a little one on one
Ya these are the days
These are our days in the sun
Yeah, yeah These are the days
Time seems to fly by
So don’t give it a reason why
Live every moment of your life.... like
These are the days
These are our days in the sun
These are the days
I'm running on whiskey and fun
Ya, ya, these are the days
These are our days in the sun
These are the days
Running on whiskey and fun
These are the days
Want a little one on one
Ya these are the days
These are our days in the sun
Yeah, yeah These are the days
These are our days in the sun
I'm runnin' on whiskey and fun
I want a little one on one
(Yeah, these are the days)




These are our days in the sun
Yeah, yeah, these are the days
