"The Days Were Made for Dancing", Layla Musselwhite

The days are bright with promise
Like that poem by Dylan Thomas
You may be young and easy,
Oh, as I was young and easy,

The days are filled with dancing and the nighttime is a pearl,
You sleep where you’ve fallen, dreaming of time, wake up outside of this world.

When life was for cherishing,
Say yeah to almost everything,
In a white linen summer gown,
Wild as an angel in this town.

The days are filled with dancing and the nighttime is a pearl,
You sleep where you’ve fallen, dreaming of time, wake up outside of this world.

He hung over me like a hurricane,
Wasting the valley and making rain,
Nothing is built to last,
Oh, baby, I let the hurricane pass.

The days are filled with dancing and the nighttime is a pearl,
You sleep where you’ve fallen, dreaming of time, wake up outside of this world.

And the days are filled with dancing and the nighttime is a pearl,
You sleep where you’ve fallen, dreaming of time.
