My grandma was a wise old soul Took me by the hand not long ago Said Son what's your hurry boy slow it down Taste the wild honey listen to the sound Of the wind that's blowing through the trees Rivers flowing to the sea Yeah they're all heading home just like you and me Life's for living child can't you see that These are the days we will remember These are the times that won't come again The highest of flames becomes an ember And you gotta live them while you can These are the days we will remember These are the days we will remember These are the days we will remember These are the days we will remember So take them by the hand they're yours and mine Take them by the hand and live your life Take them by the hand don't let them all fly by C'mon C'mon now wo Ooo well the days go by Yeah just like a hand out the window waving in the wind as the cars go by
