The Best Years of Our Lives
Oh, Michael, all the lines are down, it's Australia Day again,Everytime the wheel slows down, I think of all my friends,Whatever happened to the days way back (when) the Bondi Lifesaver was always raging,I'm standing here in Oxford Street, and the ghosts are howlin'And geez, it's rainingI said: "don't waste time. these are the best years of our lives,"I said: "don't waste time, these are the best years of our lives"I wish I had been around when the Bondi Icebergs reignedSometimes I sit and think of it, and I dream of better days,Whatever happened to the days way back, in the 1930sAll those endless parties,I'm still too young to understand, how it was back thenWhen the party endsI said, "Don't waste time, these are the best years of our lives,"I said, "Don't waste time, these are the best years of our lives"They say the circle turns around, there'll be better days,And I don't mind waitingI wish time had stopped ten years ago,But I'm learning slowly, life is always changingI said, "Don't waste time, these are the best years of our lives,"Letras de cancionesI said, "Don't waste time, these are the best years of our lives"I got a letter from Dr. Pepper, ten thousand words to the page,He was talking about Gurdjieff, and I dozed off about half way,Whatever happened to the days way back, when the world was safeAnd it seemed worth saving,We search for leaders on our hands and kneesBut don't ask David, 'cause he's still crazyI said, "Don't waste time, these are the best years of our lives,"I said, "Don't waste time, these are the best years of our lives" (x3) From Letras Mania
