The neighbors are talking
And Charlie is barking
Then the rain came on a calm dawn
And we slept through the morning

And you said, sometimes I wish the sun didn't come out at all
Yeah you said, sometimes I wish the sun didn't come out at all
Just the good days
Just the good days

Oh yeah and later on we took a southbound train
Yeah and it was cold out, yeah it was freezing down rain
Yeah and it'll let up if we all screamed for the change
Yeah but you just stood there and you started to shake

Then you said, sometimes I wish the sun didn't come out at all
Yeah you said, sometimes I wish the sun didn't come out at all
No, no just the good days
No, no just the good days
Yeah, yeah just the good days
Yeah, yeah, yeah just the good days

You lit a cigarette
And you got out of bed
And you stood on the balcony there with your feet wet
I begged you to come in out of the cold night
You said it ain't the dark that I'm afraid of, it's the light
Said it ain't the dark that I'm afraid of, it's the light
Said it ain't the dark that I'm afraid of, it's the light
Said it ain't the dark that I'm afraid of, it's the light

And you said, sometimes I wish the sun wouldn't come out at all
And you said, sometimes I wish the sun wouldn't come out at all
Just the good days
Oh, just the good days
No, no, no just the good days
No, no, no just the good days
No, no, no just the good days
No, no, no just the good days
No, no no just the good days
No, no, no just the good days

you remind me of myself
when i was your age
running wild and causing a commotion
getting carried away
early on you knew you dont belong here
but heres where you stay
pushing on through all your discomfort
and on to good days

soon you will understand
you will understand
you will understand
you will understand

we develop unhealthy attachments
to what we can't save
well you know, you know as well as i do they're fading away
so get it all out
push them aside
i'll cover it up
if that's what you'd like

soon you will understand
you will understand
you will understand
you will understand

won't you understand
won't you understand
won't you understand
