The three years that I loved you
Were the best years, oh, the early days
Yes, those early days, when I hung around
Followed you around, tryin' to catch the sound
Of your warm voice come through my radio
I went to the nightclubs and the studios
And somehow I knew, I would make it so
And you would love me in the sweetest way
One night you let me pick you up, nice and easy
I knew the time had come that you would love me some
Soon our days and nights were busy
These were the crazy years, songs, cigarettes and tears
And I never thought much about it
How it all might change some day
I just let myself feel good about you
Way back in the early years
Those early years, some heady days
They rolled from one into another, then walked away
I was so naive, but I felt so strong
Way back in the early years
We took a drive on a windy day
We watched the seagulls glide, we saw the weather change
But sometimes I feel the coldest chill I got
Was from the look upon your face across the parking lot
And your sweet voice, I still remember
But not the words I heard you say
We never made it through December
At the end of the early years
Those early years, some heady days
They rolled from one into another, then walked away
I was so naive but I felt so strong
Way back in the early years, way back in the early years
