Bad Old Days

Lyrics

The gentle sound of your breathing, the murmur of the night
 The sounds that really belong in music and someday I just might
 Meantime I just lie here smiling wide wake at dawn
 And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
 Oh, I wonder where my bad old days have gone
 When I was lost with nothing to count on
 Now I lie here smiling all night long
 And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
 The danger's in the telling I'm tempted to be bright
 When the truth is they were bad old days and didn't have to turn out right
 I love you more than morning and part of the reason why
 Is you helped me kiss those bad old days goodbye
 Oh, I wonder where my bad old days have gone
 When I was lost with nothing to count on
 Now I lie here smiling all night long
 And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
 You're quiet in the morning, you like to wake up slow
 You need your coffee before you talk, I remember you tellin' me so
 Was it sixteen years ago or was it yesterday
 That you came and chased my bad old days away?
 Now I wonder where my bad old days have gone
 When I was lost with nothing to count on
 Now I lie here smiling all night long
 And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
 Now I lie here smiling all night long
 And I wonder where my bad old days have gone
