(And these will be the best years of your life)

You say your heart is broken that my love was just a token

You say this parting touch you like a knife

But if you let it grieve you your youth would surely leave you

Cause these should be the best years of your life

I know it won't be easy cause your memories are busy

And yet you're still too young for all the strife

So let me tell you like a brother go on out and find another

And these will be the best years of your life

[ guitar ]

You say that taste is bitter because you loved a quitter

But I'm not free to take you for a while

You're lucky that it's over cause somehow you recover

And these will be the best years of your life

I know it won't be easy...
