First Track on Breaking Blue's new album, Perfidy. The song is about how our busiest days pass us by as we make "life" happen. One day we look back and realize they were the best days of our lives.
lyrics
The sun sinks down to the ground wind rustles the pines.
Birds make their twilight sounds as we drink in the last days sunshine.
I know we've had better days and harder times ahead.
One day we'll look back on this beautiful sunset.
Crooked as the years go by
We'll look back on these days as the best of our lives,
We have learned how to survive.
Crooked as the years go by.
Turn down the lights and get in bed. You hold me close, we look ahead.
Play back the day, how I wish we could stay, but time has his way.
I know we've had better days and harder times ahead
one day we'll look back on these moments we have shared
Crooked as the years go by
We'll look back on these days as the best of our lives
We have learned how to survive
Crooked as the years go by.
