Days Gone By

Looking out at an orange sky

I think back to days gone by.

There was me and you- time sure flew.

If I could turn back the days of our past

would laughter be upon my face,

or tears instead in laughter's place?

Oh, those days gone by.

Through it all we went for each other-

side by side in life together.

And when hard times threatened my faith,

by my side you were each step of the way.

Now I gaze upon a darkened horizon,

making wishes upon the night's stars.

My only wish, I cannot lie;

I wish for those days gone by.

Oh, those days gone by.
