"Best Years Of Our Lives" lyrics

"Best Years Of Our Lives"

(Why don't I sing "Best Years of Your Life" while you try, while you try to do that?)

They say your heart is broken
And my love was just a token
They say this parting cuts you like a knife
But if you let it grieve you
You're youth will surely leave you
'Cause these will be the best years of your life

I know it won't be easy
For your memories are busy
And yet, you're still too young for all this strife
So, let me tell you like a mother
"Go on out and find another
And these will be the best years of your life"

They say the taste is bitter
Because you loved a quitter
But you're not free to take me for a wife
You're lucky that is over
For somehow you'll recover
And these will be the best years of your life

I know it won't be easy
For your memories are busy
And yet, you're still too young for all this strife
So, let me tell you like a mother
"Go on out and find another
And these will be the best years of your life"
