1995 - Glory Days lyrics

[Verse 1] Don't know where it was I woke up today Two green eyes and a handful of lace Never imagined life would turn out this way But these may be the glory days I saved enough to buy my baby a car My baby had a baby and now here we are We live with Johnny who repeatedly claims That these may be the glory days Said yeah, these surely are the glory days [Chorus] In the heat of the nights I look at you darling, and I realize That every new lights Is a day, is a day somebody else left behind Every day is a glory day [Verse 2] Looked through the mirror, I said "who is that man?" He really looks like someone who has a plan "The jokes on us" I heard him say These may be what you call glory days Yeah, go ahead and call these glory days [Chorus] In the heat of the nights I look at you darling, and I realize That every new lights Is a day, is a day somebody else left behind Every day is a glory day [Verse 3] You make an honest living and no one's impressed Just stay out of jail, they'll call you a success But the crooked motherf**ers you know always get paid At least we have our glory days Said yeah, at least we have our glory days [Chorus] In the heat of the nights I look at you darling, and I realize That every new lights Is a day, is a day somebody else left behind Every day is a glory day [Outro] No matter what the others say Every day, a glory day Even if they go astray Every day is a glory day
