The Beauty Of The Days Gone By Lyrics - Down The Road - Van Morrison

When I recall just how it felt 

When I went walking down by the take 

My soul was free, my heart awake 

When I walked down into the town 

The mountain air was fresh and clear 

The sun was up behind the hill 

It felt so good to be alive 

On that morning in spring 

I want to sing this song for you 

I want to lift your spirits high 

And in my soul I want to feel 

The beauty of the days gone by

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

The beauty of the days gone by 

It brings a longing to my soul 

To contemplate my own true self 

And keep me young as I grow old 

The beauty of the days gone by 

The music that we used to play 

So, lift your glass and raise it high 

To the beauty of the days gone by 

I'll sing it from the mountain top 

Down to the valley down below 

Because my cup doth overflow 

With the beauty of the days gone by 

The mountain glen where we used to roam 

The gardens there by the railroad track 

Oh, my memory it does not lie 

Of the beauty of the days gone by 

The beauty of the days gone by 

It brings a longing to my soul 

To contemplate my own true self 

And keep me young as I grow old 

And keep me young as I grow old 

And keep me young as I grow old 

And keep me young as I grow old
