There were day

s

and there were

 days
            
and there were

        
 days between
            
Summer flies a

   
nd August dies
            
the world grow

           
s dark and mea

n
            
Comes the shim

    
mer of the moo

n
            
on black infes

    
ted trees
             
the singing ma

     
n is at his so

ng
             
the holy on th

    
eir knees
             
The reckless a

       
re out wreckin

g
             
The timid plea

        
d their pleas
            
No one knows m

There were day

s

and there were

 days
            
and there were

         
 days besides
            
when phantom s

          
hips with phan

tom sails
            
set to sea on 

        
phantom tides
            
Comes the ligh

      
tning of the s

un
            
on bright unfo

      
cused eyes
             
the blue of ye

  
t another day
             
a springtime w

        
et with sighs
             
a hopeful cand

   
le lingers
             
in the land of

 
 lullabies
            
where headless

 
 horsemen vani

sh
            
with wild and 

             
lonely cries l

      
onely cries

[Verse]

There were day

s

and there were

 days
            
and there were

        
 days I know
            
when all we ev

   
er wanted
            
was to learn a

            
nd love and gr

ow
            
Once we grew i

        
nto our shoes
            
we told them w

        
here to go
             
Walked halfway

 
 around the wo

rld
             
on promise of 

    
the glow
            
Stood upon a m


ountain top
             
Walked barefoo

         
t in the snow
            
Gave the best 

   
we had to give
            
How much we'll

             
 never know we

          
'll never know

[Verse]

There were day

 days
            
and there were

        
 days between
            
polished like 

  
a golden bowl
            
The finest eve
