Gerry Rafferty Lyrics

"Days Gone Down" lyrics


You still got that light in your eyeAnd our day is comin' by and byI'm travellin' this long road to be with youWe still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.
The first time I set eyes on you, and I listened to you sing, yeah yeahWe didn't have to speak cause the words said everythingYes you walked right into my life, and we were on our way, yeahSo long ago, but it feels like yesterday.
And I just wanna tell you...
You still got that light in your eye (yes you do)And our day is comin' by and byI'm travellin' this long road to be with youWe still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.
Now some of my best memories are days I spent with you, yeahEach time we hit the road it was always somethin' newSpaced out rather drunkAnd singin' in the sun, yeah yeahOne more bottle dead and a new day just begun.
I just wanna tell you...
You still got that light in your eyeAnd our day is comin' by and byI'm travellin' this long road to be with youWe still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.
Shinin' light, shinin' bright on the days gone downShinin' light, shinin' bright on the days gone downShinin' light, shinin' bright on the days gone down
We won't forget the days gone down, they're written in our hearts, yeah yeahAnd we're as much in tune as we were right at the startIt all seems so much harder now, it seemed so easy then, yeah yeahWell someday just for fun we might do it all again.
I just wanna tell you...
You still got that light in your eye (yes you do)And our day is comin' by and byI'm travellin' this long road to be with youWe still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.
Yeah yeah still got that light in your eyeAnd our day is comin' by and byI'm travellin', travellin' (yeah yeah)We still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.
