These Are Days
Buck/Merchant

These are days you'll remember.
Never before and never since, I promise, will the whole world be warm as
this.
And as you feel it, you'll know it's true that you are blessed and lucky.
It's true that you are touched by something that will grow and bloom in
you.

These are days you'll remember.
When May is rushing over you with desire to be part of the miracles you
see in every hour.
You'll know it's true that you are blessed and lucky.
It's true that you are touched by something that will grow and bloom in
you.

These are days.

These are the days you might fill with laughter until you break.
These days you might feel a shaft of light make its way across your face.
And when you do you'll know how it was meant to be.
See the signs and know their meaning.
It's true, you'll know how it was meant to be.
Hear the signs and know they're speaking to you, to you.

--
Don't forget.
