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 motherfuckers 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
