Remember days of yesterday
How it flew so fast
The two score and the year we had
I thought would always last

The summer days and West Coast dreams
I wished they never end
A young boy and his father
Idol and best friend

I'll always remember
Those were the best of times
A lifetime together
I'll never forget

Morning shows on the radio
The case of the missing dog
Lying on the pillows of the Odeon Twelve
Watching "Harold and Maude"

Record shops, the stick-ball fields
My home away from home
When we weren't together
The hours on the phone

I'll always remember
Those was the best of times
I'll cherish that forever
The best of times

But then came the call
Our lives change forever more
You can pray for a change
But prepare for the end

[Instrumental]

The fleeting wings of time
Flying through each day
All the things I should have done
But time just slipped away

Remember "Seize the day"
Life goes by in a blink of an eye
With so much left to say

These were the best of times
I miss these days
Your spirit led my life each day

Thank you for the inspiration
Thank you for the smiles
All the unconditional love
That carried me for miles
It carried me for miles
But most of all
Thank you for my life

These were the best of times
I'll miss these days
Your spirit led my life each day

My heart is bleeding bad
But I'll be okay
Your spirit guides my life each day
