Gerry Rafferty - Days Gone Down Lyrics

You still got that light in your eye

And our day is comin' by and by

I'm travellin' this long road to be with you

We still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.



The first time I set eyes on you, and I listened to you sing, yeah yeah

We didn't have to speak cause the words said everything

Yes you walked right into my life, and we were on our way, yeah

So long ago, but it feels like yesterday.



And I just wanna tell you...



You still got that light in your eye (yes you do)

And our day is comin' by and by

I'm travellin' this long road to be with you

We still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.



Now some of my best memories are days I spent with you, yeah

Each time we hit the road it was always somethin' new

Spaced out rather drunk

And singin' in the sun, yeah yeah

One more bottle dead and a new day just begun.



I just wanna tell you...



You still got that light in your eye

And our day is comin' by and by

I'm travellin' this long road to be with you

We still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.



Shinin' light, shinin' bright on the days gone down

Shinin' light, shinin' bright on the days gone down

Shinin' light, shinin' bright on the days gone down



We won't forget the days gone down, they're written in our hearts, yeah yeah

And we're as much in tune as we were right at the start

It all seems so much harder now, it seemed so easy then, yeah yeah

Well someday just for fun we might do it all again.



I just wanna tell you...



You still got that light in your eye (yes you do)

And our day is comin' by and by

I'm travellin' this long road to be with you

We still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.



Yeah yeah still got that light in your eye

And our day is comin' by and by

I'm travellin', travellin' (yeah yeah)

We still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.
