[Verse 1: Jason Falkner]
Okay
It started a long time ago
When I was a little boy
Sometimes
A little one don't do what he's told
And mother puts back his toy

[Chorus: Jason Falkner]
Yes there is something you can do my love
Won't you help me through these troubled times
And serve to remind
That everything is gonna be alright
Despite my fighting bitter tears
These are the very best years

[Verse 2: Jason Falkner]
These days
Father's not the man that we knew
And you know we get so low
That's when
You find me alone with my will
And my wine, and these scars that show

[Chorus: Jason Falkner]
Yes there is something you can do my love
Won't you help me through these troubled times
And serve to remind
That everything is gonna be alright
Despite my fighting bitter tears
These are the very best years
[Bridge: The Grays]
I was just five years old
Had this dream that took me far away
And brought me here today
Where my hopes and fears
Are gathered around
Can't you feel them hanging 'round

[Chorus: Jason Falkner]
Yes there is something you can do my love
Won't you help me through these troubled times
And serve to remind
That everything is gonna be alright
Despite my fighting bitter tears
And serve to remind
Yes everything is gonna be alright
Despite my fighting bitter tears
'Cause these are the very best years, yeah
Uh-huh
These are the very best years
