Best Days (Acoustic) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
So much harder to be honest
With yourself at twenty-something
Wish I knew what I'm becoming
And felt the ground while I was on it

[Pre-Chorus]
Hoping, waiting on a moment
Not knowing if it's coming or it's going, mhm

[Chorus]
What if my best days are the days I've left behind?
And what if the rest stays the same for all my life?
I'm running with my eyes closed, so it goes
You live and then you die
But the hardest pill to swallow is the meantime
Are the best days just the ones that we survive?

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
If I had known to feel thе fire
I would've thrown my arms up higher
Would'vе held on a little tighter
'Cause you don't know a thing you miss 'til it's behind you, mhm
[Chorus]
What if my best days are the days I've left behind?
And what if the rest stays the same for all my life?
I'm running with my eyes closed, so it goes
You live and then you die
But the hardest pill to swallow is the meantime
Are the best days just the ones that we survive?

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

[Bridge]
Aah, ooh
What if my best days are the days I've left behind?
And what if the rest stays the same for all my life?

[Chorus]
What if the best days are the days I've left behind?
And what if the rest stays the same for all my life?

[Outro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Yeah, yeah, ooh

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
