It was November back in 84
With Joe Cocker on the radio the year that I was born
Back then was simple on the tv screen
Pictures of a better time printed on all magazines
But that was all back then and this is now
Can’t turn back around
And the generation's hands are on the wheel
These are the best days, the best days of your life
The break ups that shape us to who we are
It’s the courage that it takes to live in these times
So make it the best days, the best days of your life
It was November back in 91
The Berlin wall came down, we hoped for no more guns
And I do remember back in 94
Michael Jordan in the air inspired us to soar
But that was all back then and this is now
Can’t turn back around
Every generation's hands are on the wheel
These were the best days, the best days of our life
The break ups that shape us to who we are
It's the courage that it takes to live in these times
So make it the best days, the best days of your life
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la etc
Please be the best days, the best days of our lives
If it breaks us it’ll teach us to survive
It's the courage that it takes to live in these times
It's the best days, the best days of your life
